Answer to Question 1

Induced expenditure is expenditure that depends on the level of real GDP, so that when real GDP changes, induced expenditure changes. Autonomous expenditure is independent of the level of real GDP, so that when real GDP changes, autonomous expenditure does not change. Consumption expenditure includes elements of both autonomous and induced expenditure. So, too, do imports. However, investment, government expenditure on goods and services, and exports are all autonomous expenditure.
