Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
Aggregate demand is a sum of the total demand of the final goods and services demanded by the economy, or it is real GDP households that are willing to buy at a different level of price. Thus, aggregate demand does not represent the specific dollar amount.

What is the difference between a movement along the aggregate demand curve and a shift of the aggregate demand curve?
The following graph shows the aggregate demand (AD) curve in a hypothetical economy. At point A, the price level is 140, and the quantity of output
demanded is $300 billion. Moving down along the aggregate demand curve from point A to point B, the price level falls to 120, and the quantity of
output demanded rises to $500 billion.
