Answer to Question 1

Current output could fall. The increase in G will cause the IS curve to shift to the right. The increase in future G will cause an increase in future output which will also shift the IS curve to the right. The increase in future rates, however, will cause current demand to fall and shift the current IS curve to the left. If these effects dominate (or if the Fed is expected to contract in the future), Y could fall in the current period.

Answer to Question 2

C
