Correct option is D
(d) C + I
In a two-sector economy (household and firms), aggregate demand is the sum of consumption (C) and investment (I). There is no government or foreign sector involved.
Information Booster:
- C = Consumption (household spending).
- I = Investment (capital formation by firms).
- Two-sector model ignores government and external trade.
- S + I is a savings-investment identity, not demand.
- C - S is not an appropriate formula.
- Keynesian economics emphasizes the role of aggregate demand.
Additional Information:
- Aggregate demand expands with government spending.
- Exports increase aggregate demand.
- Recession occurs when aggregate demand declines.
