Considering a three sector economy, i.e., Y = C + I + G, derive the expression for output (Y)
and aggregate demand (AD).
Consider an economy having following values of Consumption, Investment, Government
Spending, and Taxes,
C = 300 + 0.7Yd I = 200 – 200iG = 600T = 100
Derive the aggregate demand equation. Also, calculate the output in an economy

Dedication of macroeconomic
Assume the economy is in a recession. Explain how each of the following policies would affect consumption, investment and national income (GDP). In each case, indicate any direct effects, any effects resulting from changes in the macroeconomic variables and the overall effect in the economy. If there are conflicting effects making the answer ambiguous, say so.
a) How fiscal policy influences aggregate demand and how these can be used to expand the economy?
b) How monetary policy influences aggregate demand and how these can be used to expand the economy?
Explain why flexible labour markets are such an important element in supply side policies?
