Consider a Keynesian model but where investment (just like consumption) is increasing in aggregate income, e.g., because investment depends on business cash flow. Now that investment depends on aggregate income, a fiscal stimulus has more effect on equilibrium output. Answer true, false, or uncertain. Please briefly explain your answer

Consider the Keynesian Cross model. If the fiscal multiplier equals 2, and the government decides to increase government purchases by 100, by how much would equilibrium output increase?
Consider two standard Keynesian models. In Model 1, there are two types of consumers, Type A, who have low marginal propensities to consume, and Type B, who have high marginal propensities to consume. In Model 2, there are only Type B consumers. Then, an increase in the exogenous government purchases would lead to higher output in Model 1 than in Model 2. Answer true or false.
