  B) Y will decrease by 3.
  C) Y will decrease by less than 3.
  D) the capital-labor ratio (K/N) will decrease.

Answer to Question 1

An increase in Y causes X to rise, Z to rise, and the IS curve to shift to the right. A reduction in i will cause an appreciation of the domestic currency, a reduction in NX, and a leftward shift in the IS curve. A change in i will only cause a movement along the IS curve.

Answer to Question 2
