When in a two sector economy, at a particular price level, aggregate demand for final goods equals aggregate supply of final goods, the final goods or product market reaches its equilibrium. In this context, identify the correct statement.

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 4

Through the multiplier process, a rise in autonomous spending raises aggregate output by a larger amount, since the increase equals the autonomous rise times 11−MPC\frac{1}{1-MPC}; option 4 is correct. MPC is the increase (not decrease) in ex ante consumption per unit rise in income; a two-sector economy has no government spending in AD; and full employment does not assume only casual unemployment.
