Correct Answer: INR 1,200


Solution : The correct answer is  B) INR 1,200

To calculate the change in equilibrium income resulting from an autonomous increase in investment spending, we can use the multiplier effect. The investment multiplier is given as 2.

Given: Investment multiplier (K) = 2

Autonomous increase in investment spending = INR 600

Change in equilibrium income = K * Autonomous increase in investment spending

Change in equilibrium income = 2 * 600

Change in equilibrium income = 1200

Therefore, the change in equilibrium income is INR 1,200.
