    It shifts to the left by $200 million at each price level

    Explanation:

    Given that,

    Multiplier = 2

    Net exports decrease by $100 million

    Change in aggregate demand is calculated as follows:

    Multiplier = Change in Aggregate Income (ΔY) : Change in Exports (ΔX)

    2 = ΔY : (-$100)

    ΔY = - $200

    Therefore, the national income will fall by - $200 and hence the aggregate demand will fall by - $200. Hence, the aggregate demand curve will shift to the left.
