Answer to Question 1

At the equilibrium level of aggregate expenditure, aggregate expenditure is equal to real GDP.

In this situation, businesses increase their production, so output increases and real GDP increases. At levels of real GDP where aggregate expenditure is less than real GDP, business inventories are greater than their target levels.
