The following graph shows the aggregate demand (AD) curve in a hypothetical economy. At point A, the price level is 140, and the quantity of output
demanded is $300 billion. Moving down along the aggregate demand curve from point A to point B, the price level falls to 120, and the quantity of
output demanded rises to $500 billion.
