Answer:

Given :

A nation produces 500 units of output,

Sells 400 of these to domestic consumers,

Price = $2 per unit

Exports the remaining 100 units

Imports = 50 units

Price of Imports = $3 per unit.

We can compute the aggregate demand using the following formula:

Aggregate Demand = (price of commodity × Quantity sold) + (price overseas × exports)

= ($2×400) + ($2.50×100)

= 1050

∴ Aggregate demand for the output of this country is 1050
