Stewart · Answer 1

The correct answer is option A.

Explanation:

A reduction in the money supply implies a decrease in the availability of credit and hence decrease in the quantity of loanable funds. This will cause the aggregate demand to decrease.

This decrease in aggregate demand will cause the aggregate demand curve to move to the left.

A new investment tax credit will increase investment in capital goods. This will cause the aggregate demand to increase. Consequently, the aggregate demand curve will move to the right.
