Options:

(A), (D), (C), (B)

(A), (C), (B), (D)

(B), (A), (D), (C)

(C), (B), (D), (A)

Correct Answer:

(A), (D), (C), (B)

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (1) → (A), (D), (C), (B)

  • (A) The autonomous expenditure increases — because investment is a component of autonomous expenditure.

  • (D) The aggregate demand curve shifts parallel upward — higher expenditure increases overall demand at all income levels.

  • (C) Income and output increase — producers respond to higher demand by increasing production.

  • (B) Aggregate demand and output have a multiplier effect — the initial rise in expenditure leads to further rounds of spending, amplifying the total increase in income and output.
