Question

Calculate investment expenditure from the following date about an economy which is in equilibrium :
National Income = 1000
Marginal propensity to save = 0.20
Autonomous consumption expenditure = 100

Solution

Given that

National income (Y) = 1000

Marginal propensity to save (MPS) = 0.20

Autonomous consumption expenditure = 100

MPC(c) = 1 - MPS = 1 - 0.20 = 0.8

 As we know that

Y= C + I

Since `C = barC + cY`

We have

`Y = barC + cY + I`

`1000 = 100 + 0.8(1000) + I`

1000 = 900 + I

I = 100

Therfore, investment expenditure is Rs 100.
