Answer:

The correct answers are 200 million; increase.

Explanation:

The aggregate expense is the approximate value of the goods and services that an economy will produce. It measures its economic activity, or gross domestic product. Its definition in terms of the variables of the components is the sum of consumption, expected investments and public spending and net exports. The factors that affect it usually alter the estimated value. These factors must initially affect the variables of the components in order to alter the net aggregate.
