Marginal propensity to consume + marginal propensity to save ......................... '

(zero \ one \ less \ more)


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


Define marginal propensity to consume


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

National income = 1000

Autonomous consumption expenditure = 200

Investment expenditure = 100


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


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.


An economy is in equilibrium. From the following data calculate autonomous consumption.[4]
(i) Income = 10,000
(ii) Marginal propensity to consume = 0.2
(iii) Autonomous consumption = 1,500


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 Marginal Propensity to Save from the following:
National Income = 1000
Autonomous Consumption = 100
Investment = 120


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


An economy is in equilibrium. Calculate Autonomous Consumption from the following :
National Income = 1,250
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


An economy is in equilibrium. Find the Investment Expenditure from the following :
National Income = 750
Autonomous Consumption = 200
Marginal Propensity to Save = 0.4

In an economy 75 percent of the increase in income is spent on consumption. Investment increased by ₹ 1,000 crore.

Calculate the total increase in income on the basis of given information. 


An Economy is in equilibrium, calculate the Marginal Propensity to Save (MPS) from the following:

  1. National Income (Y) = ₹ 4,400
  2. Autonomous Consumption `bar("C")` = ₹ 1,000
  3. Investment Expenditure (I) = ₹ 70 

How is APS obtained from the APC?


APC can be greater than one, but MPC is always less than one. Give a reason to justify this phenomenon.
