last two digits: , 2, 8.

Growth rate 2%

The economy is below the natural level of output and is under recessionary pressure. In order to revive the eonomy the government should increase its expenditure so as to incraese demand in the economy. The increase in demand will shift teh AD curve to teh right in the AD-AS setup and will increase teh output in the economy. The inflation in the economy will also be helpful in incentivising the suppliers as we move along the Short run supply curve to reach the new higher level of output.
