Shifts in the Aggregate Demand Curve due to Autonomous Spending Changes
The aggregate demand curve undergoes a parallel shift when there are changes in its autonomous components. Specifically, an increase in autonomous consumption (), government spending (G), exports (X), or autonomous investment () will cause the entire aggregate demand curve to shift upward.

Shifts in the Aggregate Demand Curve due to Autonomous Spending Changes
Determinants of the Aggregate Demand Curve's Slope
An economy's planned spending is described by the following relationships:
- Consumption Spending: C = 200 + 0.75(Y-T)
- Planned Investment: I = 150
- Government Purchases: G = 125
- Taxes: T = 100
(Assume a closed economy where Net Exports are zero.)
If the current level of total income (Y) in the economy is 1,200, what is the corresponding level of aggregate demand that would be plotted on the aggregate demand curve?
The aggregate demand curve, as a graphical representation of the aggregate demand function, illustrates an inverse relationship between the economy's overall price level and the level of national income.
Interpreting the Aggregate Demand Curve
An economist is constructing a graph to illustrate the relationship between total planned spending and total income in an economy. Match each graphical component to its correct economic meaning.

Impact of Government Infrastructure Projects
A widespread wave of pessimism about future consumer demand leads many firms to decrease their planned capital expenditures, even though the current level of national income has not changed. How would this event be represented on a graph plotting aggregate demand against national income?
Differentiating Economic Shocks on Aggregate Demand
In a standard model where aggregate demand is plotted against national income, each of the following events would cause a parallel upward shift in the aggregate demand curve, EXCEPT:
