Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

The multiplier is important because it means that a relatively small change in autonomous spending, such as investment spending or net exports, can have a much larger effect on total spending and real Gross Domestic Product (GDP). The greater the marginal propensity to consume (MPC), the greater the multiplier because more of a given increase in income is spent, raising the income of other people by more.
