Question
The image displays an Aggregate Demand (AD) model graph, illustrating changes in price level and real GDP.

### Graph Description:
- **Axes:**
  - The vertical axis represents "Price Level."
  - The horizontal axis represents "Real GDP."

- **Curves:**
  - **SRAS** (Short-Run Aggregate Supply) is shown with an upward-sloping line.
  - Two Aggregate Demand curves are depicted:
    - **AD₁**: The initial AD curve.
    - **AD₂**: The increased AD curve, shifted to the right from AD₁.

- **Points and Movements:**
  - The initial equilibrium is at the intersection of SRAS and AD₁ at price level PL₁ and real GDP Y₁.
  - The new equilibrium, after the increase in aggregate demand, is at the intersection of SRAS and AD₂ at a higher price level, PL₂, and a higher real GDP, Y₂.
  - The arrows indicate the rightward shift of the AD curve and the resulting increase in both price level and real GDP.

### Accompanying Text:
The Aggregate Demand Model shows an increase in Aggregate Demand or an **increase in GDP**. Which Fiscal Policy Action would **cause** this change?

### Options:
- Raise Taxes & Cut Government Spending
- Decrease Taxes & Government Spending
- Increase Taxes & Government Spending
- **Cut Taxes and Increase Government Spending** 

The correct choice that typically leads to an increase in aggregate demand is the fourth option: **Cut Taxes and Increase Government Spending**.
