True or False: Expansionary fiscal policy is more likely to lead to a short-run increase in investment when the interest rate sensitivity of investment is large than when it is small. True False

1. True

2. True

Explanation:

An expansionary gap, also known as the inflationary gap in economics is used to measure the difference between the gross domestic product (GDP) and the current level of real Gross Domestic Products that exists when a country's economy is guaged at a full employment rate. This eventually causes the price of goods and services to go up with a low income level. Also, an expansionary fiscal policy will cause the total increase in aggregate demand to be greater than the initial increase in aggregate demand due to the multiplier process.

Additionally, this simply means in an inflationary or expansionary condition, the potential Gross Domestic Products (GDP) is lower than the real Gross Domestic Products.

The investment accelerator effect states that there is an increase in investment expenditure when there is increase in the level of income or demand. Thus, the level of investment in a particular economy is based on the rate of change in consumption and the gross domestic product (GDP).

Hence, when the investment accelerator is large, there's likely to be a short-run increase in investment due to expansionary fiscal policy. The expansionary fiscal policy is usually less when the the interest rate sensitivity of investment is large and consequently, leading to a greater decline in investments.
