Thank you for reading this. I am looking for the clarification for the above-mentioned question.
This is the question:
If a population has a marginal propensity to save of 0.2 and the government injects $100m into the economy, how much additional expenditure will result?The answer behind the notes is $500m.
My question is:
Shouldn’t the $500m is the SUM of the expenditure and the $400m [SUM – initial expenditure] is the additional expenditure generated?(since $100M is not “generated” but injected at the first place as the initial expenditure, shouldn’t the “additional expenditure” be counted starting from Round 2)
July 23, 2021 at 8:35 am #629181I understand your point. However, the question asks how much additional expenditure will result not how much additional is generated.
Perhaps the question could be better worded.
