Answer #1

Increase in business confidence and thus increase in investment in capital leads to increase in aggregate expenditure due to AE which includes investment spending shifts upwards and new equilibrium is reached at e' where real gdp is higher at Y'*.

In the IS-LM graph, IS curve shifts to the right as IS includes investment spending as one of its components. At new equilibrium e', real gdp and interest rate are both higher at Y'* and i' respectively.
