प्रश्न

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

National income = 1000

Autonomous consumption expenditure = 200

Investment expenditure = 100

उत्तर

 

Given that

National income (Y) = 1000

Autonomous consumption expenditure `(barC)=200`

Investment expenditure (I) = 100

As we know that

National Income = Consumption + Investment expenditure

`Y=barC+cY+I`

where c is marginal propensity to consume

1000 = 200 + c(1000) + 100

700 = c(1000)

c = 0.7

Hence, marginal propensity to consume is 0.7

An economy is in equilibrium. From the following data calculate investment expenditure :

(i) Marginal propensity to consume = 0·9

If in an economy :
Change in initial Investment (∆I) = ₹ 700 crores
Marginal Propensity to Save (MPS) = 0.2

Find the values of the following :
(a) Investment Multiplier (k)
(b) Change in final income (∆Y)

MPC = MPS = ?


Which or is true?


Which of the following statement is true?


The sum of MPC and MPS is always equal to _____


What is "MPS" or the 'marginal propensity' to save? 


The rate of increase in ______ due to a unit increment in income is called marginal propensity to consume.


If the value of Average Propensity to Save (APS) is 0.2 and National Income is ₹4,000 crores, then consumption will be ______


Complete the following table:

INCOME
(Y)
SAVING
(S)
APC
0 (-) 12  
20 6  

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