Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

Government spending and taxes do not have independent effects on aggregate demand because of the adjustment of the interest rate and resulting crowding-out effects on the components of private sector demand. The only things that shift aggregate demand are changes in the money supply or the velocity of money.
