Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

A budget that causes an increase in the budget deficit will cause a reduction in the saving rate. Reductions in the saving rate will only temporarily affect the growth rates of Y and Y/N. Once the new balanced growth equilibrium is achieved, the growth rates of Y and Y/N will return to their original levels.
