the remainder, the expenditure multiplier for this economy is
The following graph shows the initial aggregate demand (AD) and short-run aggregate supply (SRAS) curves of this economy.
Suppose that the economy is currently in a recession. Business firms are pessimistic about the future and do not respond to a fall in interest rates. In
addition, all households are pessimistic about job prospects and desire to consume less and save more at all levels of income. As a result, personal
consumption in this economy decreases by $1 billion.

Shift either the AD curve or the SRAS curve, or both, to show the new aggregate demand curve after the full impact of the multiplier process of the
reduction in personal consumption has taken place.
