The following graph shows the initiall 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.
The reduction in personal consumption will lead to a decrease in aggregate demand by
PRICE LEVEL (Billions of dollars)
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.

AD
Since an economy's aggregate output measured by real GDP also represents the aggregate income received by the resources of production within the
economy, the decrease in aggregate demand you found equals the decrease in aggregate income. The effect of this decline in aggregate income is
an increase in total saving of $0.2 billion.
