  2. Aggregate profit

  3. Aggregate demand price

  4. Aggregate income

This is the rate of return from the  business according to which the firms make their long term and short term plans. 

Aggregate demand function represents a ________ relationship between the level of output and employment and the aggregate demand price.

  1. positive

  2. negative

  3. constant

  4. non-linear


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Aggregate demand function represents the relation between the level of out produced in an economy to the level of employment in the economy and aggregate demand price where the level of output and level of employment has a direct relationship due to which if one increases then the other one also increases and vice versa as employees directly contribute in the production of output and level of output and demand price have an inverse relationship as level of output increases in the economy then the aggregate demand price decreases due to demand deficiency and vice versa.

Aggregate demand function is represented by a downward sloping curve.

  1. True

  2. False


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

False.

AD curve is upward sloping owing to increasing income in the economy. As the income increases, the expenditure by the people also increases which leads to rising AD and vice versa. Therefore, income and AD has a positive relationship between them due to which AD curve is upward sloping. 

Aggregate supply curve becomes a ____________, after the full employment level has been achieved in the economy.

  1. vertical line

  2. downward sloping curve

  3. horizontal line

  4. none of the above


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Aggregate supply refers to the desired level of output in the economy during an accounting year. It is through this output only that the producer sector generates income. Aggregate supply function is a upward sloping curve which denotes the direct relation between the level of output produced in the economy and income generates. The curve become vertical after full employment level of output indicating the maximum amount of output which can be produced in the economy generating the respective national income. 

The aggregate demand curve intercepts on the _________.

  1. Y-axis

  2. X-axis

  3. point of origin

  4. none of the above


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Aggregate Demand refers to the desired level of expenditure in the economy during an accounting year. It is what people wish to spend on the purchase of goods and services during an accounting year.

Aggregate demand= C+I+G+ (X-M) where

C= Consumption expenditure

I= Investment expenditure

G= Government expenditure

(X-M)= Net export

Aggregate demand curve is upward sloping showing a positive relation between level of income and overall expenditure in the economy. The curve intercepts on Y-axis because even at zero level of income, there is some consumption which is required for the very existence of life.
