Panel (a) Panel (b)
![Figure 14-3 Panel (a) Panel (b) -Refer to Figure 14-3. Suppose the interest rate falls from 6% to 4.8%. The quantity of investment demanded rises by (I<sub>a</sub> - I<sub>b</sub>) as shown in Panel (a) . At a given price level, P<sub>1</sub>, this causes the aggregate demand curve to shift from C to D as shown in Panel (b) . What is the size of this shift? A) The distance CD is equal to (I<sub>a</sub> - I<sub>b</sub>) . B) The distance CD is equal to [MPC *(I<sub>a</sub> - I<sub>b</sub>) ] where MPC = marginal propensity to consume. C) The distance CD is equal to [MPI*(I<sub>a</sub> - I<sub>b</sub>) ] where MPI = marginal propensity to invest. D) The distance CD is equal to [Im *(I<sub>a</sub> - I<sub>b</sub>) ] where Im = investment spending multiplier.](https://d2lvgg3v3hfg70.cloudfront.net/TB5507/11eab912_7ef4_70c6_99e6_73b93de143a2_TB5507_00_TB5507_00_TB5507_00_TB5507_00_TB5507_00_TB5507_00.jpg)
-Refer to Figure 14-3. Suppose the interest rate falls from 6% to 4.8%. The quantity of investment demanded rises by (Ia - Ib) as shown in Panel (a) . At a given price level, P1, this causes the aggregate demand curve to shift from C to D as shown in Panel (b) . What is the size of this shift?
A) The distance CD is equal to (Ia - Ib) .
B) The distance CD is equal to [MPC *(Ia - Ib) ] where MPC = marginal propensity to consume.
C) The distance CD is equal to [MPI*(Ia - Ib) ] where MPI = marginal propensity to invest.
D) The distance CD is equal to [Im *(Ia - Ib) ] where Im = investment spending multiplier.
