    D) C = 12,000 + (40,000 x 0.5)

    Explanation:

    the current aggregate consumption function is C = 10,000 + (40,000 x 0.5)

    aggregate autonomous consumption = 10,000 aggregate disposable income x 0.5 (MPC)

    if the aggregate autonomous consumption increases, then the function would be:

    C = 11,000 + (40,000 x 0.5) C = 12,000 + (40,000 x 0.5) C = 13,000 + (40,000 x 0.5) C = 14,000 + (40,000 x 0.5) etc ...

    So the only possible option is D
