Answer: Option D. -> (i) 14,100
(ii) 7,100
:
D
(i) Given, S = - 50 + 0.5Y
and I = 7,000
At the equilibrium level,
⇒ S = I
-50 + 0.5Y = 7,000
0.5Y = 7,000 + 50
0.5Y = 7,050
Y=7,0500.5
⇒ Y = 14,100
(ii) At Y = 14,100
Saving, S = - 50 + 0.5(14,100)
= - 50 + 7,050
∴ S = 7,000
Consumption expenditure, C = Y - S
⇒ =14,100−7,000
=7,100
Alternative Method
At equilibrium level,
Saving = Investment
Saving = 7,000
Consumption expenditure, C = Y - S
= 14,100 - 7,000
= 7,100.
(i) Equilibrium level of national income = 14,100.
(ii) Consumption expenditure at equilibrium level of national income = 7,100.

D
(i) Given, S = - 50 + 0.5Y
and I = 7,000
At the equilibrium level,
⇒ S = I
-50 + 0.5Y = 7,000
0.5Y = 7,000 + 50
0.5Y = 7,050
Y=7,0500.5
⇒ Y = 14,100
(ii) At Y = 14,100
Saving, S = - 50 + 0.5(14,100)
= - 50 + 7,050
∴ S = 7,000
Consumption expenditure, C = Y - S
⇒ =14,100−7,000
=7,100
Alternative Method
At equilibrium level,
Saving = Investment
Saving = 7,000
Consumption expenditure, C = Y - S
= 14,100 - 7,000
= 7,100.
(i) Equilibrium level of national income = 14,100.
(ii) Consumption expenditure at equilibrium level of national income = 7,100.

False. MPC + MPS = 1, it can never be greater than or less than 1.
Question 23. Given, the consumption function, C = 150 + 0.6Y, where C = consumption expenditure, Y = income and investment expenditure = Rs 2,000. Calculate:
(i) Equilibrium level of national income
(ii) Consumption at equilibrium level of national income
(iii) Saving at equilibrium level of national income
(i) Equilibrium level of national income
(ii) Consumption at equilibrium level of national income
(iii) Saving at equilibrium level of national income
Answer: Option B. -> (i) Rs 5,375
(ii) Rs 3,375
(iii) Rs 2,000
:
B
(i) Given, C = 150 + 0.6Y and I = 2,000
At the equilibrium level,
Y = C + I
⇒ Y = 150 + 0.6Y + 2,000 ⇒ Y = 2,150 + 0.6Y
Y - 0.6Y = 2,150 ⇒ 0.4Y = 2,150
Y=2,1500.4=5,375
(ii) Consumption, C = 150 +0.6(5,375)
= 150 + 3,225 = 3,375
(iii) We know that, Y = C + S
⇒ S = Y - C = 5,375 - 3,375 = 2,000
Alternatively,
Given : C = 150 + 0.6Y,
S = -150 + 0.4Y (∵ MPC = 0.6, accordingly MPS = 1 - 0.6 = 0.4)
Or, S= -150 + 0.4(5,375)
= -150 + 2,150 = 2,000.
(i) Equilibrium level of national income = Rs 5,375.
(ii) Consumption expenditure at equilibrium level of national income = Rs 3,375.
(iii) Saving at equilibrium level of national income = Rs 2,000.
:
B
(i) Given, C = 150 + 0.6Y and I = 2,000
At the equilibrium level,
Y = C + I
⇒ Y = 150 + 0.6Y + 2,000 ⇒ Y = 2,150 + 0.6Y
Y - 0.6Y = 2,150 ⇒ 0.4Y = 2,150
Y=2,1500.4=5,375
(ii) Consumption, C = 150 +0.6(5,375)
= 150 + 3,225 = 3,375
(iii) We know that, Y = C + S
⇒ S = Y - C = 5,375 - 3,375 = 2,000
Alternatively,
Given : C = 150 + 0.6Y,
S = -150 + 0.4Y (∵ MPC = 0.6, accordingly MPS = 1 - 0.6 = 0.4)
Or, S= -150 + 0.4(5,375)
= -150 + 2,150 = 2,000.
(i) Equilibrium level of national income = Rs 5,375.
(ii) Consumption expenditure at equilibrium level of national income = Rs 3,375.
(iii) Saving at equilibrium level of national income = Rs 2,000.
Answer: Option A. -> Rs 60
:
A
MPS = ΔSΔY
ΔS = MPS *ΔY
= 0.6 * 100
= Rs. 60
:
A
MPS = ΔSΔY
ΔS = MPS *ΔY
= 0.6 * 100
= Rs. 60
Answer: Option B. -> 1
:
B
Multiplier = 11−MPC
= 1.
:
B
Multiplier = 11−MPC
= 1.
Answer: Option B. -> -300
:
B
C + S = Y
At zero income level,
C = -S
When Y = 0, C = 300 + 0.8(0) = 300
Therefore, S = -300
:
B
C + S = Y
At zero income level,
C = -S
When Y = 0, C = 300 + 0.8(0) = 300
Therefore, S = -300
Answer: Option A. -> Increase
:
A
If MPC increases, the value of multiplier will increase.
:
A
If MPC increases, the value of multiplier will increase.
Answer: Option C. -> 2
:
C
If MPC = MPS, then, MPC = MPS = 0.5.
Multiplier = 11−0.5
= 2
:
C
If MPC = MPS, then, MPC = MPS = 0.5.
Multiplier = 11−0.5
= 2
Answer: Option A. -> Increases
:
A
On account of an injection of aggregate demand, the equilibrium level of income increases.
:
A
On account of an injection of aggregate demand, the equilibrium level of income increases.
Answer: Option A. -> Rs 25,000
:
A
Change in savings =50,000×12=25,000
We know, MPS=ΔSΔY=25,00050,000=0.5
We know,
Multiplier (M)=11−MPC=1MPS
Or, M=ΔYΔI
Now, MPS = 0.5, we get ΔI=ΔYM
=50,0002=25,000 [M=1MPS=10.5=2]
Increase in GDP by Rs 50,000 is caused by increase in investment of Rs 25,000.
