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
उत्तर
Given that
Income (Y) = 10,000
Marginal propensity to save (s) = 0.2
Therefore, marginal propensity to consume = 1 -0.2 =0.8
I= 1500
As we know that
Y =C+I
C =Y -1
C = 10,000 – 1500 = 8500
`C = barC + cY`
`8500 = barC + 0.8(10000)`
`barC = 500`
Thus, autonomous consumption is 500.

Consumption
Define or explain the following concept
Marginal Cost.
If in an economy :
Change in initial Investment (∆I) = ₹ 700 crores
Marginal Propensity to Save (MPS) = 0.2
(a) Investment Multiplier (k)
(b) Change in final income (∆Y)
Marginal Propensity to Save is equal to ______
What is saving per Income called?
When we add up utility derived from consumption of all the units of the commodities, we get:
Average Propensity to Consume is equal to:
Income rises from ₹50,000 to ₹60,000, consumption increases from ₹40,000 to ₹48,000. In this situation, what will be the value of Marginal Propensity to Consume (MPC)?
For a hypothetical economy, the government incurs an investment expenditure of ₹ 1,000 crore. If the value of Marginal Propensity to Save (MPS) falls from 0.25 to 0.10. Calculate the value of increase in income due to change in the value of Marginal Propensity to Save (MPS).
Complete the following table:
| INCOME (Y) |
SAVING (S) |
APC |
| 0 | (-) 12 | |
| 20 | 6 |
When National Income rises from ₹ 600 Cr. to ₹ 1000 Cr., the consumption expenditure increases from ₹ 500 Cr. to ₹ 800 Cr. Calculate MPC and hence the value of Investment Multiplier.
