The consumption expenditure Ec of a person with the income x. is given by Ec = 0.0006x2 + 0.003x. Find MPC, MPS, APC and APS when the income x = 200.

The consumption expenditure Ec of a person with income x is given by Ec = 0.0006x2 + 0.003x. Find the average propensity to consume (APC), marginal propensity to consume (MPC) when his income is ₹ 200. Also find his marginal propensity to save (MPS).

Sum

Solution

The expenditure Ec of a person with income x is given by 

Ec = 0.0006x2 + 0.003x 

So, marginal propensity to consume (MPC) = `("dE"_"c")/("dx")`

= `"d"/("dx")(0.0006x^2 + 0.003x)`

= 0.0006 × 2x + 0.003

= 0.0012x + 0.003

When x = 200,

MPC = (0.0012 × 200) + 0.003

= 0.24 + 0.003 = 0.243

MPS = 1 − MPC

= 1 − 0.243

= 0.757

Now APC =`"E"_"c"/"x"` 

= `(0.0006x^2 + 0.003x)/x`

= 0.0006x + 0.003

When x = 200

APC = 0.0006 × 200 + 0.003

= 0.12 + 0.003 = 0.123

APS = 1 − APC

= 1 − 0.123

= 0.877

Find the value of x for which the function f(x)= 2x3 – 9x2 + 12x + 2 is decreasing.

Given f(x) = 2x3 – 9x2 + 12x + 2

∴ f'(x) = `squarex^2 - square + square`

∴ f'(x) = `6(x - 1)(square)`

Now f'(x) < 0

∴ 6(x – 1)(x – 2) < 0

Since ab < 0 ⇔a < 0 and b < 0 or a > 0 and b < 0

Case 1: (x – 1) < 0 and (x – 2) < 0

∴ x < `square` and x > `square`

Which is contradiction

Case 2: x – 1 and x – 2 < 0

∴ x > `square` and x < `square`

1 < `square` < 2

f(x) is decreasing if and only if x ∈ `square`
