I said 0%, because 1% is only true for nominal change in GDP, not real change in GDP.

AD = C+I+G+(X-M)

Yr 1 AD (GDP) = 1000
Yr 2 AD (GDP) = 1100

Nominal increase: 1.1

CPI: 1.1

Real increase: Nominal / CPI; 1.1 / 1.1

= 1

aka 0 increase (remained at 100%)

I hope you did not actually waste time doing that in your head.

You can see X=M for both years, you can totally ignore that.

Mentally add 500+200+300 = 1000, easy.

Mentally add 550+250+300, = 1100, easy. (You know the last one was 1000, there's two new 50s here).

1100 / 110 = 1

Did it in less than 15 seconds, leaving me a minute more for essays.
