Suppose that when your income increases by $300, your consumption expenditures increases by $225.
Your marginal propensity to consume (MPC) is _________ .
If your MPC was the same as the MPC for the economy as a whole, the expenditure multiplier for the economy would be ______________ .
Thus, a $2 million investment project would increase income by $ _________ million in total.
Homework Answers
Answer
MPC=change in consumption/change in income
=225/300
MPC=0.75
the multiplier =1/(1-MPC)
=1/(1-0.75)=4
the multiplier is 4
==========
change in income =change in investment * multiplier
=2*4
=$8 million
the income increases by maximum of $8 million.

Suppose that when your income increases by $200, your consumption expenditures increases by $160. Your marginal propensity to consume (MPC) is . If your MPC was the same as the MPC for the economy as a whole, the expenditure multiplier for the economy would be. . Thus, a $3 million investment project would increase income by million in total.

Suppose that investment expenditures increases by $300 billion in a closed and private economy (no government or foreign trade). Assume further that households have a marginal propensity to consume of 75 percent. What will be the final cumulative impact on spending? $900 billion $225 billion $375 billion $525 billion

In an economy, when disposable income increases from $400 to $500, consumption expenditure increases from $420 billion to $500. Calculate the marginal propensity to consume, the change in saving, and the marginal propensity to save. The marginal propensity to consume is 0.80. >>> Answer to 2 decimal places. When disposable income increases from $400 billion to $500 billion, saving increases by $ 20 billion. The marginal propensity to save is 0.20 >>> Answer to 2 decimal places.

10.) An economy has a marginal propensity to consume and Y* , income-expenditure equilibrium GDP, equals $500 billion. Given an autonomous increase in plannėd investment of $10 billion, show the rounds of increased spending that take place by completing the accompanying table. The first and second rows are filled in for you. In the first row the increase of planned investment spending of $10 billion raises real GDP and YD by $10 billion, leading to an increase in consumer spending...

5. Graphing the consumption function from the MPC Consider a hypothetical economy in which the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) is 0.50. That is, if disposable income increases by $1, consumption increases by 50¢. Suppose further that last year disposable income in the economy was $400 billion and consumption was $350 billion. On the following graph, use the blue line (circle symbol) to plot this economy's consumption function based on these data. Consumption Function CONSUMPTION (Billions of dollars) 0 800...
