What is the relationship between the price level and the following components of aggregate demand. a. there is relationship between the price level and consumption. b. there is relationship between the price level and investment. c. there is relationship between the price level and government spending. d. there is relationship between the price level and net exports.

a. Negative

b. Negative

c. No

d. Negative

Explanation:

a. There is a negative relationship between price level and consumption. As the price level increases, the real money income and purchasing power of consumers decline. This causes their consumption spending to decline as well.  

b. There is a negative relationship between the price level and investment. A decline in the price level implies that the consumers will need a lesser amount of money. This will cause the demand for money to decrease. The leftward shift in the money demand curve will cause the interest rate to fall. At a lower interest rate, the investment will be higher.  

c. There is no direct relationship between the price level and government spending. An increase in government spending will increase aggregate demand. This, in turn, will cause the price level to increase. Though an increase in price level does not essentially cause government spending to increase.  

d. A higher price level will make domestic goods expensive as compared to imports. This will cause the imports of goods to increase and exports to decline. So an increase in price will cause the net exports to fall.
