Question 35 of 36

Q.Find MPC, MPS, APC and APS, if the expenditure EcE_c of a person with his income II is given as Ec=(0.0003)I2+(0.075)IE_c = (0.0003)I^2 + (0.075)I, when I=1000I = 1000.

MPC =dEcdI=0.0006I+0.075=0.675= \frac{dE_c}{dI} = 0.0006I + 0.075 = 0.675 at I=1000I=1000; MPS =1−MPC=0.325= 1 - \text{MPC} = 0.325; APC =EcI=0.375= \frac{E_c}{I} = 0.375; APS =1−APC=0.625= 1 - \text{APC} = 0.625.

Given Ec=0.0003 I2+0.075 IE_c = 0.0003\,I^2 + 0.075\,I.

Marginal Propensity to Consume (MPC):

MPC=dEcdI=2(0.0003)I+0.075=0.0006 I+0.075.\text{MPC} = \frac{dE_c}{dI} = 2(0.0003)I + 0.075 = 0.0006\,I + 0.075.

At I=1000I = 1000:   MPC=0.0006(1000)+0.075=0.6+0.075=0.675.\;\text{MPC} = 0.0006(1000) + 0.075 = 0.6 + 0.075 = 0.675.

Marginal Propensity to Save (MPS):

MPS=1−MPC=1−0.675=0.325.\text{MPS} = 1 - \text{MPC} = 1 - 0.675 = 0.325.

Average Propensity to Consume (APC): first find EcE_c at I=1000I = 1000: …
