Solution
Option 1 -> Fixed price level is an assumption in Keynesian models, not a determinant itself.
Option 2 -> Aggregate supply determines the production capacity and employment levels in the economy.
Option 3 -> Fixed autonomous spending is a constant value and does not actively determine income and employment variations.
Option 4 -> Aggregate demand directly determines the level of output and employment through effective demand.
Hence, Fixed autonomous spending -> When autonomous spending is fixed (constant), it becomes a given parameter rather than an active determinant. Income and employment in an economy are determined by the interaction of aggregate demand and aggregate supply. While autonomous spending is a component of aggregate demand, when it is "fixed," it does not vary to determine equilibrium. The actual determinants are the dynamic forces of aggregate demand and aggregate supply that interact to establish equilibrium income and employment levels. A fixed value simply serves as a baseline constant in the model rather than a determining factor. -> correct
