Answer to Question 1

If inventories are less than planned, aggregate planned expenditure exceeds real GDP. In order to restore their inventories to their desired levels, firms will increase their production. As a result, real GDP increases. Inventories remain less than planned and real GDP continues to increase until eventually real GDP reaches its equilibrium level, at which point actual and planned inventories are equal.
