This document provides an overview of consumption theory including key concepts like the consumption function, marginal propensity to consume, average propensity to consume, and the psychological law of consumption. It also discusses saving functions, investment, and factors that influence consumption, saving, and investment decisions. Some of the main points covered include defining consumption and savings, the relationship between income and consumption, linear and nonlinear consumption functions, and how consumption, savings, and investment interact in an economy.
The document discusses the consumption function and its key determinants. It states that consumption (C) equals autonomous consumption (C0) plus induced consumption which varies directly with disposable income (Yd) through a linear function. It also discusses concepts like the marginal propensity to consume (MPC), average propensity to consume (APC), multiplier effect, and aggregate demand. The multiplier expresses the ratio of the change in income to the initial change in investment and depends on the level of MPC. Aggregate demand (AD) equals consumption (C) plus investment (I) plus government spending (G) plus net exports.
1. The document discusses key concepts related to aggregate demand, aggregate supply, and their components. It defines aggregate demand as the total expenditure on final goods and services in an economy, and identifies its main components as private consumption, investment, government expenditure, and net exports.
2. Aggregate supply is defined as the total production of goods and services in an economy. Its main components are consumption and savings. The relationship between consumption, income, and savings is also explained using consumption and savings functions.
3. Important concepts like average propensity to consume, marginal propensity to consume, and their properties are summarized. The relationship between different macroeconomic variables like income, consumption, savings, aggregate demand, and aggregate supply
This document provides an overview of the key concepts in the Keynesian theory of national income determination. It discusses the theory through three economic models: a two-sector model consisting of households and businesses, a three-sector model adding government, and a four-sector model including foreign trade. The document defines important Keynesian concepts like aggregate demand, the consumption function, marginal propensity to consume, and average propensity to consume. It also illustrates the circular flow of income and expenditures in a simple two-sector economy.
The document summarizes several economic theories of consumption:
1) John Maynard Keynes theorized that consumption depends on current income, while later models incorporated expected future income and wealth.
2) Irving Fisher introduced intertemporal choice theory, assuming consumers maximize lifetime utility subject to budget constraints.
3) Franco Modigliani's life-cycle hypothesis proposes consumption varies over a person's life cycle as they save during working years and dissave in retirement.
4) Milton Friedman's permanent income hypothesis views current income as having permanent and transitory components, with consumption based on permanent income.
Consumption and investment are the two components of aggregate demand in a simple two-sector macroeconomic model that assumes no government or foreign trade. Consumption is determined by disposable income and other factors, while savings is the portion of disposable income not consumed. The marginal propensity to consume measures how consumption changes with income, and is between 0 and 1. Determinants of consumption and savings include income, interest rates, prices, wealth, and demographic factors.

The document discusses Keynes' consumption function, which posits that consumption is a function of income. It states that according to Keynes:
1) Consumption increases as income increases, but not by as much as the increase in income.
2) When income increases, the increment is divided between consumption spending and savings.
3) Both consumption spending and savings will rise as income increases.
The document then defines key terms in Keynes' consumption function analysis, such as average propensity to consume, marginal propensity to consume, average propensity to save, and marginal propensity to save.
1. The document discusses consumption theory and how consumption relates to income through consumption functions. It defines consumption and savings functions and explains how to calculate them based on different income levels.
2. The aggregate expenditure model is introduced as a way to relate total spending in the economy to gross domestic product. The model shows equilibrium being reached at the point where total expenditures equal GDP, which can be seen via a Keynesian cross diagram.
3. Determinants of consumption and the calculation of equilibrium output are outlined. Equilibrium output is found using the consumption function equation and setting consumption equal to income to find the level where total expenditures and income are equal
Approaches used in Measuring ational incomeNmanyabetrum
There are three main approaches to measuring national income: the income approach, expenditure approach, and product/output approach. The income approach adds up all incomes received, the expenditure approach adds up all expenditures, and the product approach measures the total value of final goods produced. National income is determined by factors such as technology, human capital, policies, resources, and market size. While per capita income measures average income, it does not fully capture living standards. National income equilibrium is reached when aggregate demand equals aggregate supply according to the two-sector model.
Determination of income and employment important notesVijay Kumar
This document defines key macroeconomic concepts related to aggregate demand and supply. It explains that:
1. Aggregate demand is the total planned expenditure on final goods and services and equals consumption + investment + government spending + net exports. Consumption and investment make up aggregate demand in a simple two-sector economy.
2. Aggregate supply is the total planned output of final goods and services and equals national income. National income equals consumption + savings at the national level.
3. The consumption function shows the relationship between consumption and national income, where consumption has an autonomous and induced component. The marginal propensity to consume is the change in consumption from a change in income.
Equilibrium level of income is Rs. 320 Crore.
Q2. If in an economy, C = 100 + 0.8Y and I = 50 + 0.1Y. Calculate equilibrium
level of income.
Answer: AD = AS
C + I = Y
100 + 0.8Y + 50 + 0.1Y = Y
150 + 0.9Y = Y
150 = 0.1Y
Y = 150/0.1 = Rs. 1500 Crore
This document provides an overview of consumption functions and related economic concepts. It defines consumption expenditure and discusses its graphical representation. It also examines the relationship between consumption expenditure and factors like wealth, interest rates, and income. Key concepts discussed include the average propensity to consume, marginal propensity to consume, saving function, average propensity to save, and marginal propensity to save. Graphs are used to illustrate these relationships and how consumption and savings change with different levels of income.
The document discusses Keynes' income determination model and the concepts of consumption, saving, investment, and equilibrium. It can be summarized as:
1) The model shows how consumption, saving, and investment determine aggregate demand and income in a simple two-sector closed economy.
2) Consumption depends on income and is modeled as C = Ca + cY, where Ca is autonomous consumption and cY is induced consumption. Saving is the portion of income not consumed.
3) Equilibrium occurs where aggregate expenditure (C + I) equals total income, as shown by the intersection of the AE and 45-degree lines. At this point, planned saving equals planned investment.
This document discusses key concepts in economics related to income determination, including MPC, MPS, APC, APS, consumption functions, and the AD-AS approaches. It provides examples and solutions to calculate these values based on income and consumption data. It also reviews investment functions, full employment, and definitions of related economic equilibrium states.
1) Keynes argued that consumption is determined by disposable income and other factors. Empirical studies from 1929-1941 estimated the consumption function as C = 26.5 + 0.75Yd, supporting Keynes' theory.
2) Kuznets' data from 1869-1938 showed average propensity to consume remained constant despite rising income, contradicting Keynesian predictions.
3) The life cycle and permanent income hypotheses were proposed as alternative explanations for consumption, arguing it depends on lifetime rather than current income. They better explained post-war consumption levels.
The document summarizes Keynes' psychological law of consumption, which states that as income increases, consumption increases but by less than the increase in income. It defines the consumption function and shows it represented as C=f(Y). Keynes proposed that consumption has both an autonomous and induced component. The law has three related propositions: 1) consumption increases as income rises but by a smaller amount, 2) the increased income is divided between consumption and savings, and 3) rises in income increase both consumption and savings. The law is illustrated using a table and consumption diagram. It assumes a stable psychological and institutional environment for the capitalist economy.
1. The document discusses Keynesian economics and the functions of consumption and investment.
2. According to Keynesian theory, consumption is a function of national income, and consumption and investment determine a nation's total demand and output.
3. Keynes argued that consumption depends on current income levels, and will increase as income increases but at a decreasing rate, while investment depends on expected future income levels and demand conditions.
This document outlines the concepts of the consumption function and the multiplier effect in economics. It discusses:
1) The Keynesian consumption function, which models consumption (C) as a function of income (Y), where consumption has an autonomous and income-induced component. The marginal propensity to consume (MPC) describes how much of additional income is spent on consumption.
2) The multiplier effect, where an initial change to autonomous consumption or government spending (G) generates further rounds of consumption through the MPC, cumulatively increasing income (Y) by a multiplier amount.
3) The multiplier (k) is calculated as the change in income (ΔY) divided by the initial change in
This document provides an overview of several prominent theories of consumption, including:
1) John Maynard Keynes' theory that current consumption depends on current income. Later theories found problems with Keynes' prediction that consumption would grow more slowly than income over time.
2) Irving Fisher's intertemporal choice theory, which assumes consumers maximize lifetime satisfaction subject to an intertemporal budget constraint. This theory formed the basis for later work on consumption.
3) Franco Modigliani's life-cycle hypothesis, which proposes consumption depends on lifetime resources and income varies systematically over a consumer's life cycle, allowing saving to achieve smooth consumption. This theory helped solve the "consumption puzzle."
4)
The document discusses key concepts related to consumption functions, including:
1) Consumption depends mainly on current income but is also influenced by other factors like interest rates and wealth. As income rises, consumption increases at a lower rate due to savings.
2) Average Propensity to Consume (APC) and Marginal Propensity to Consume (MPC) measure the relationship between consumption and income. APC is the ratio of total consumption to total income, while MPC is the change in consumption over a change in income.
3) Effective demand, the combination of consumption and investment demand, must remain high to maintain employment levels. Investment demand depends on the marginal efficiency of capital (MEC).

Theory of Income and Employment - Economics 12th ISC Refresher course.pptxHimaanHarish
The document discusses key concepts in macroeconomics such as aggregate demand, aggregate supply, equilibrium output, and the multiplier effect. It defines ex-ante demand as planned demand and ex-post demand as actual demand. Aggregate demand is the total final expenditure and is affected by consumption, investment, government spending, and net exports. Equilibrium output occurs at the point where aggregate demand and supply intersect. The investment multiplier shows that a change in investment leads to a greater change in total income through subsequent rounds of spending.
This document discusses key concepts related to consumption functions in economics. It defines consumption as aggregate expenditure on goods and services to satisfy wants. Consumption is determined by and a function of income (C=f(Y)). The simple consumption function is expressed as C=C0+C1Y, where C0 is autonomous consumption and C1 is the marginal propensity to consume. Autonomous consumption refers to minimum spending needed even without income. The document also discusses average and marginal propensity to consume, save, and invest, and how these relate to the multiplier concept in economics.
Keynes’s psychological law of consumptionAjay Samyal
1) Keynes proposed a psychological law of consumption which states that as income increases, consumption increases but not proportionately. The marginal propensity to consume is less than one.
2) Consumption depends mainly on current income. As income rises, the proportion of income spent on consumption (average propensity to consume) falls.
3) Keynes' consumption function can be expressed as C = a + bYd, where C is consumption, Yd is disposable income, a is autonomous consumption, and b is the marginal propensity to consume (MPC), which is less than the average propensity to consume (APC).
The document discusses the consumption function, which models the relationship between total consumption and national income. Consumption is defined as an increasing function of income. The average propensity to consume (APC) is the ratio of consumption to income and declines as income rises. The marginal propensity to consume (MPC) is the change in consumption from a change in income and is assumed to be positive but less than 1. Keynes' psychological law of consumption states that consumption increases less than proportionately to increases in income. Determinants of consumption include subjective psychological factors as well as objective factors like wages, fiscal policy, and interest rates. Theories like Duesenberry's relative income hypothesis model consumption as interdependent and influenced by social
The document discusses theories of consumption, including Keynes' consumption function which posits that consumption is primarily determined by current income. It also discusses later developments like the life-cycle hypothesis and permanent income hypothesis which argue consumption depends on lifetime or permanent income rather than just current income. The document also examines consumer optimization using indifference curves and budget constraints over multiple time periods.
The document provides information on several international financial institutions and organizations:
The International Monetary Fund (IMF) promotes international monetary cooperation and trade. Headquartered in Washington D.C., it has 189 member countries and oversees short-term lending to address members' balance of payments issues.
The World Bank aims to reduce poverty and promote shared prosperity. Based in Washington D.C., it provides long-term loans for development projects across 173 countries.
The World Trade Organization (WTO) facilitates global trade through negotiations and dispute resolution. With 164 members, it works to liberalize trade, ensure fair competition, and help developing countries.

1. A bank is a business organization that deals in borrowing and lending money and makes a profit through interest charged on loans. The Central Bank, also known as the Reserve Bank of India, controls the country's money supply and promotes financial stability.
2. The Central Bank regulates other banks, acts as a lender of last resort, clears checks, and manages foreign exchange rates and monetary policy. Commercial banks accept deposits, lend funds, use checks, and provide other services like agency functions.
3. Export credit agencies provide insurance to exporters against payment risks and help recover bad debts. The Export Import Bank finances imports/exports and provides related services, while the IMF promotes exchange rate stability and balance of payments adjustments between
The balance of payments is a systematic record of a country's external economic transactions over a period of time. It includes visible and invisible items, recording transactions of both goods, services, and capital. The balance of trade is part of the current account and records only merchandise exports and imports, while the balance of payments provides a more complete picture of a country's international economic relations by also including financial and other non-physical flows. Imbalances in the balance of payments can be caused by factors like trade cycles, economic development, national income levels, and external borrowing. Currency appreciation means the domestic currency gains value against foreign currencies, while depreciation means it loses value.
Basic concepts in internatioal businessDhina Karan
International business involves commercial activities that cross national borders. It is defined as business transactions conducted between countries. International business has several key features, including the involvement of multiple countries, the use of foreign exchange, different legal obligations between nations, exposure to risks in foreign markets, and heavy documentation requirements due to differences in economic environments and business practices across borders.
This document provides an overview of 5 units related to international business:
Unit I defines international business and compares it to domestic business. Unit II covers balance of trade, balance of payments, and exchange rates. Unit III discusses domestic support institutions for exports like RBI, commercial banks, and ECGC. Unit IV discusses international support institutions like IMF, World Bank, WTO, and the Eurodollar market. Unit V briefly mentions the Indian government's EXIM policy and export councils.
The document discusses poverty and unemployment in India. It defines poverty as individuals who cannot meet basic needs like food and shelter due to insufficient income. It also defines unemployment as people who are willing and able to work but cannot find employment. Some key points made include:
- Over 350 million people in India still live below the poverty line according to recent UN reports.
- Many government schemes have been implemented to reduce poverty and generate employment, such as NREGA, but poverty and unemployment remain significant problems.
- Causes of poverty include population growth, lack of economic development, and low levels of education. Causes of unemployment include a lack of job creation and a mismatch between skills and available jobs.
Exchange control aims to balance a country's foreign receipts and payments through indirect government control of foreign exchange rather than flexible exchange rates or market forces. It involves regulating all foreign currency receipts and payments. The objectives of exchange control include stabilizing exchange rates, preventing capital flight, protecting domestic industries, checking non-essential imports, and remedying unfavorable balance of payments. Methods of exchange control include direct methods like intervention, exchange restrictions, and clearing agreements as well as indirect methods like quantitative restrictions, export bounties, and interest rate adjustments.
This document discusses free trade and protectionism in economics. It defines free trade as a policy without tariffs or other trade barriers between countries. The advantages listed include comparative cost advantage, increased factor earnings, cheaper imports, an enlarged market, competition, and greater welfare. However, the document also notes arguments against free trade such as imperfect competition and one-sided development. Protectionism is then defined as encouraging domestic industries through subsidies or tariffs on foreign goods. The document provides several economic and non-economic arguments for protectionism, such as terms of trade and infant industries, as well as defense, patriotism, and preservation of certain industries. It concludes by acknowledging some of the difficulties in assessing and implementing these policies.
The document discusses balance of trade, balance of payments, causes of disequilibrium in balance of payments, and measures to correct disequilibrium. It defines balance of trade as the difference between a country's exports and imports of visible goods over a period of time. Balance of payments is a record of all external transactions, including goods, services, and capital flows. Causes of disequilibrium include trade cycles, population growth, external borrowing, and inflation. Measures to correct disequilibrium involve monetary actions like depreciation or devaluation, and non-monetary actions like tariffs, quotas, or export promotion policies.
The gains from international trade depend on a country's terms of trade, which is the ratio of export prices to import prices. There are three main types of terms of trade: 1) Net barter terms of trade, which is the ratio of export price index to import price index; 2) Gross barter terms of trade, which is an index of import quantities to export quantities; 3) Income terms of trade, which is the net barter terms multiplied by the export volume index. The terms of trade can be influenced by factors like the elasticity of demand, the nature of supply and production, a country's size, population, exchange rates, and trade policies.

This document provides an overview of different theories of international trade, including:
- Absolute advantage theory proposed by Adam Smith which states that countries should specialize in goods they have an absolute cost advantage in.
- Comparative advantage theory by Ricardo which expanded on this to show benefits of specialization based on comparative rather than absolute costs.
- Modern theories like Heckscher-Ohlin which propose that differences in factor endowments between countries (e.g. capital vs. labor) lead to trade in factor-intensive goods.
It also outlines key assumptions and limitations of each theory, and differences between internal and international trade.
The document discusses international trade and key organizations involved. It defines the balance of trade and balance of payments, noting key differences. Causes of disequilibrium in the balance of payments are provided. The objectives and functions of the International Monetary Fund (IMF), International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (World Bank), and World Trade Organization (WTO) are summarized.
This document provides an overview of key concepts related to national income and macroeconomics, including:
1) National income is defined as the total market value of all final goods and services produced in an economy in a year.
2) Key concepts in measuring national income include gross domestic product, net domestic product, gross national product, national income, and per capita income.
3) National income can be measured using the product method, income method, and expenditure method.
4) The document also summarizes theories related to rent, wages, interest, and profit, including the Ricardian theory of rent, wage fund theory, Keynesian liquidity preference theory of interest, and Schumpeter
This document discusses several economic concepts related to factors of production. It defines factors of production as resources that contribute to output, including land, labor, capital and organization. It then provides more details on the characteristics and definitions of specific factors:
- Land refers to natural resources and includes characteristics like being a gift of nature, fixed quantity, and differing fertility.
- Labor means any work and has characteristics of being perishable, active, and heterogeneous.
- Capital is man-made, productive, mobile and elastic in supply.
It also discusses division of labor and its advantages like increased output and quality, and disadvantages such as monotony. Localization of industry and its causes, advantages like reputation and
The document discusses three economic concepts:
1) The law of diminishing marginal utility, which states that the additional benefit a person derives from consuming more of a good diminishes with each additional unit consumed.
2) The law of equi-marginal utility, which assumes consumers rationally allocate spending to equalize marginal utility across goods given prices and income.
3) Elasticity of supply, which measures how responsive the quantity supplied is to changes in price.
This document discusses elasticity of demand, including price elasticity of demand and other types. It defines elasticity of demand as the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price, income, prices of related goods, and advertising. The document outlines different types of elasticity - price elasticity of demand, income elasticity of demand, cross elasticity of demand, and advertising elasticity of demand. It also discusses methods of measuring elasticity and uses of understanding elasticity of demand.

Fabular Frames and the Four Ratio ProblemMajid Iqbal
Digital, interactive art showing the struggle of a society in providing for its present population while also saving planetary resources for future generations. Spread across several frames, the art is actually the rendering of real and speculative data. The stereographic projections change shape in response to prompts and provocations. Visitors interact with the model through speculative statements about how to increase savings across communities, regions, ecosystems and environments. Their fabulations combined with random noise, i.e. factors beyond control, have a dramatic effect on the societal transition. Things get better. Things get worse. The aim is to give visitors a new grasp and feel of the ongoing struggles in democracies around the world.
Stunning art in the small multiples format brings out the spatiotemporal nature of societal transitions, against backdrop issues such as energy, housing, waste, farmland and forest. In each frame we see hopeful and frightful interplays between spending and saving. Problems emerge when one of the two parts of the existential anaglyph rapidly shrinks like Arctic ice, as factors cross thresholds. Ecological wealth and intergenerational equity areFour at stake. Not enough spending could mean economic stress, social unrest and political conflict. Not enough saving and there will be climate breakdown and ‘bankruptcy’. So where does speculative design start and the gambling and betting end? Behind each fabular frame is a four ratio problem. Each ratio reflects the level of sacrifice and self-restraint a society is willing to accept, against promises of prosperity and freedom. Some values seem to stabilise a frame while others cause collapse. Get the ratios right and we can have it all. Get them wrong and things get more desperate.

The Rise and Fall of Ponzi Schemes in America.pptxDiana Rose
Ponzi schemes, a notorious form of financial fraud, have plagued America’s investment landscape for decades. Named after Charles Ponzi, who orchestrated one of the most infamous schemes in the early 20th century, these fraudulent operations promise high returns with little or no risk, only to collapse and leave investors with significant losses. This article explores the nature of Ponzi schemes, notable cases in American history, their impact on victims, and measures to prevent falling prey to such scams.
Understanding Ponzi Schemes
A Ponzi scheme is an investment scam where returns are paid to earlier investors using the capital from newer investors, rather than from legitimate profit earned. The scheme relies on a constant influx of new investments to continue paying the promised returns. Eventually, when the flow of new money slows down or stops, the scheme collapses, leaving the majority of investors with substantial financial losses.
Historical Context: Charles Ponzi and His Legacy
Charles Ponzi is the namesake of this deceptive practice. In the 1920s, Ponzi promised investors in Boston a 50% return within 45 days or 100% return in 90 days through arbitrage of international reply coupons. Initially, he paid returns as promised, not from profits, but from the investments of new participants. When his scheme unraveled, it resulted in losses exceeding $20 million (equivalent to about $270 million today).
Notable American Ponzi Schemes
1. Bernie Madoff: Perhaps the most notorious Ponzi scheme in recent history, Bernie Madoff’s fraud involved $65 billion. Madoff, a well-respected figure in the financial industry, promised steady, high returns through a secretive investment strategy. His scheme lasted for decades before collapsing in 2008, devastating thousands of investors, including individuals, charities, and institutional clients.
2. Allen Stanford: Through his company, Stanford Financial Group, Allen Stanford orchestrated a $7 billion Ponzi scheme, luring investors with fraudulent certificates of deposit issued by his offshore bank. Stanford promised high returns and lavish lifestyle benefits to his investors, which ultimately led to a 110-year prison sentence for the financier in 2012.
3. Tom Petters: In a scheme that lasted more than a decade, Tom Petters ran a $3.65 billion Ponzi scheme, using his company, Petters Group Worldwide. He claimed to buy and sell consumer electronics, but in reality, he used new investments to pay off old debts and fund his extravagant lifestyle. Petters was convicted in 2009 and sentenced to 50 years in prison.
4. Eric Dalius and Saivian: Eric Dalius, a prominent figure behind Saivian, a cashback program promising high returns, is under scrutiny for allegedly orchestrating a Ponzi scheme. Saivian enticed investors with promises of up to 20% cash back on everyday purchases. However, investigations suggest that the returns were paid using new investments rather than legitimate profits. The collapse of Saivian l

How to Invest in Cryptocurrency for Beginners: A Complete GuideDaniel
Cryptocurrency is digital money that operates independently of a central authority, utilizing cryptography for security. Unlike traditional currencies issued by governments (fiat currencies), cryptocurrencies are decentralized and typically operate on a technology called blockchain. Each cryptocurrency transaction is recorded on a public ledger, ensuring transparency and security.
Cryptocurrencies can be used for various purposes, including online purchases, investment opportunities, and as a means of transferring value globally without the need for intermediaries like banks.
Confirmation of Payee (CoP) is a vital security measure adopted by financial institutions and payment service providers. Its core purpose is to confirm that the recipient’s name matches the information provided by the sender during a banking transaction, ensuring that funds are transferred to the correct payment account.
Confirmation of Payee was built to tackle the increasing numbers of APP Fraud and in the landscape of UK banking, the spectre of APP fraud looms large. In 2022, over £1.2 billion was stolen by fraudsters through authorised and unauthorised fraud, equivalent to more than £2,300 every minute. This statistic emphasises the urgent need for robust security measures like CoP. While over £1.2 billion was stolen through fraud in 2022, there was an eight per cent reduction compared to 2021 which highlights the positive outcomes obtained from the implementation of Confirmation of Payee. The number of fraud cases across the UK also decreased by four per cent to nearly three million cases during the same period; latest statistics from UK Finance.
In essence, Confirmation of Payee plays a pivotal role in digital banking, guaranteeing the flawless execution of banking transactions. It stands as a guardian against fraud and misallocation, demonstrating the commitment of financial institutions to safeguard their clients’ assets. The next time you engage in a banking transaction, remember the invaluable role of CoP in ensuring the security of your financial interests.

5. (1) The Average Propensity to Consume:
The average propensity to consume is the ratio of consumption expenditure to any
particular level of income.” Algebraically it may be expressed as under:
• APC = C/Y
C= Consumption
Y = Income
6. (2) The Marginal Propensity to Consume:
The marginal propensity to consume may be defined as the ratio of the change in
the consumption to the change in income. Algebraically it may be expressed as
under:
MPC = ∆C/∆Y
Where
ΔC= Change in Consumption
ΔY = Change in Income
MPC is positive but less than unity
0 < ∆C/∆Y < 1
7. (3) The Average Propensity to Save (APS) :
The average propensity to save is the ratio of saving to income.
APS is the quotient obtained by dividing the total saving by the total income. In other words, it
is the ratio of total savings to total income. It can be expressed algebraically in the form of
equation as under
APS = S/Y
Where
S= Saving
Y=Income
8. 4 .The Marginal Propensity to Save (MPS)
• Marginal Propensity to Save is the ratio of change in saving to a change in
income. MPS is obtained by dividing change in savings by change in income. It
can be expressed algebraically as
MPS = ∆S/∆Y
ΔS = Change in Saving
ΔY= Change in Income
11. Keynes’s Law is based on the following assumptions:
1. Ceteris paribus (constant extraneous variables):
2. 2. Existence of Normal Conditions:
3. 3. Existence of a Laissez-faire Capitalist Economy:
•Propositions of the Law:
13. Proposition (1):
When income increases from 120 to 180 consumption also increases from 120 to 170 but the
increase in consumption is less than the increase in income, 10 is saved.
Proposition (2):
When income increases to 180 and 240, it is divided in some proportion between consumption by
170 and 220 and saving by 10 and 20 respectively.
Proposition (3):
Increases in income to 180 and 240 lead to increased consumption 170 and 220 and increased
saving 20 and 10 than before. It is clear from the widening area below the С curve and the saving
gap between 45° line and С curve.
14. 4. Determinants of Consumption function: Subjective and Objective Factors
A) Subjective Factors
1. The motive of foresight
2.The motive of precaution
3. The motive of calculation
4.The motive of improvement:
5. The motive of financial independence
6. The motive of enterprise (desire to do forward trading).
7. The motive of pride.(desire to bequeath a fortune)
8. The motive of avarice.(purely miserly instinct)
