- based on macroeconomic theory, one of the following four answers is a correct description of the concept, “expenditure multiplier”. Which one? A/ It is the idea that decreasing national income affects the equilibrium level of GDP by the same amount of that decrease in income. B/ It is the concept that increasing national income affects the equilibrium level of GDP on par with the amount of increased income. C/ The expenditure multiplier is the idea that a given change in spending leads to an equal change in the equilibrium level of GDP.
