Answer to Question 1

The marginal propensity to import explains this. As Y increases, C and I will increase causing an increase in DD. Some of this increase in demand is for foreign goods. This must be subtracted from DD to obtain ZZ. So, a given increase in Y will have a larger effect on DD than it will on ZZ.
