5. Refer to the data in the table that
accompanies problem 2. Suppose that
the present equilibrium price level and
level of real GDP are 100 and $225, and
that data set B represents the relevant
aggregate supply schedule for the
economy. LO12.6
a. What must be the current amount of
real output demanded at the 100 price
level?
b. If the amount of output demanded
declined by $25 at the 100 price level
shown in B, what would be the new
equilibrium real GDP? In business
