प्रश्न

Give reasons or explain the following statement: 

 Income which is not saved is consumption.  

उत्तर

 Income has two major components i.e., consumption and savings. This means an individual can utilise his/her income in two ways, either by consuming it (by purchasing goods and services or for investment purposes) or by saving it (by depositting it in banks). Thus, it can be said that income which is not saved is consumption.

Distinguish between marginal propensity to consume and average propensity to consume. Give a numerical example.


In an economy investment is increased by Rs. 300 crore. If marginal propensity to consume is 2/3, calculate increase in national income.


An economy is in equilibrium. Calculate Marginal Propensity to Consume :

National income = 1000

Autonomous consumption expenditure = 200

Investment expenditure = 100


Find equilibrium national income:

Autonomous consumption expenditure = 120

Marginal propensity to consume = 0.9

Investment expenditure = 1100


An economy is in equilibrium. Find investment expenditure: 

National Income =1,000

Autonomous Consumption =100

Marginal propensity to consume =0.8


Suppose marginal propensity to consume is 0.8. How much increase in investment is required to increase national income by Rs. 2000 crore? Calculate.


In an economy an increase in investment by Rs 100 crore led to ‘increase’ in national by Rs 1000 crore. Find marginal propensity to consume.


An economy is in equilibrium. Find marginal propensity to consume :

Autonomous consumption

Expenditure = 100

Investment expenditure = 100

National Income = 2,000


An economy is in equilibrium. Find autonomous consumption expenditure:

National Income =1,600

Investment Expenditure = 300

Marginal Propensity to Consume= 0.8


The value of marginal propensity to consume is 0.6 and initial income in the economy is Rs 100 crores. Prepare a schedule showing Income, Consumption and Saving. Also show the equilibrium level of income by assuming autonomous investment of Rs 80 crores.


Assuming that increase in investment is Rs. 800 crore and marginal propensity to consume is 0.8, explain the working of multiplier

(a) greater than 2

(b) less than 2

(c) equal to 2

(d) equal to 5


An economy is in equilibrium. Find Marginal Propensity to Consume from the following:
National income = 2000
Autonomous consumption = 400
Investment expenditure = 200


An economy is in equilibrium. Calculate the National Income from the following :
Autonomous Consumption = 120
Marginal Propensity to Save = 0.2
Investment Expenditure = 150


Calculate Marginal Propensity to Consume from the following data about an economy

Which is an equilibrium:

National income = 2000

Autonomous Consumption expenditure = 200

Investment expenditure = 100
