प्रश्न

 Answer in brief. 

Explain the relationship between Income and Consumption. 

उत्तर

The relation between the consumption and the income is depicted by the consumption function, also known as ‘Propensity to Consume’. It depicts how a change in the income causes a change in the consumption pattern of an individual.

C = f(Y)
Where,
C represents consumption expenditure
Y represents aggregate income; and
 f represents the functional relationship between the consumption expenditure and the level of the disposable income.

According to this, as the income increases, the consumption expenditure also increases. however, the increase in the consumption expenditure is less than the increase in income.

If increase in National Income is equal to increase in consumption, identity the value of Marginal Propensity to Save:


Assertion (A): Saving curve makes a negative intercept on the vertical axis at zero level of income.

Reason (R): Saving function refers to the functional relationship between saving and income.


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
