In 2014, the United States defined poverty as the state in which anyone is surviving on less than  $32.00 per day.

<h3>What are the measures of poverty?</h3>

Poverty can be measured with current income  condition of an individual to fulfil the basic necessities of life. It focuses on poverty measures such as income, food, and housing access, among others.

It is calculated by keeping in mind three factors which are as follows-

·         Basic needs of individual

·         Income before paying tax

·         Inflation or change in the price of goods and services

The physical poverty model is widely used in income poverty surveys to assess lack of access to financial opportunities, to meet basic fundamental requirements. If a person's earnings is insufficient to purchase the amount of goods and services used to define poverty, they are considered poor.

In 2014, United States considered people as below poverty lines whose daily earning is less than $32.00 per day.

In a simple economy​ (assume there are no​ taxes, thus Y is disposable​ income), the consumption function is Upper C equals 1000
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

Autonomous consumption is <u>$1,000</u> and the marginal propensity to consume is <u>0.9</u>.

A consumer whose income increases by​ $100 will increase consumption by <u>​$90</u>.

Explanation:

Given C = 1000 + 0.9Y

Autonomous consumption refers to consumption expenditure of consumers that does not depend on income. Therefore, autonomous consumption is therefore the consumption expenditure made by the consumers when they do not have income or when income is zero (i.e. when Y = 0).

Substituting for Y = 0 into the consumption function, we can obtain autonomous consumption is follows:

Autonomous consumption = 1000 + (0.9 * 0) = 1,000

The marginal propensity to consume refers to the proportion of the increase in disposable income that is spent on the consumption of goods and services by a consumer. From the consumption function, the marginal propensity to consume is 0.9.

Since marginal propensity to consume is 0.9, a consumer whose income increases by​ $100 will therefore increase consumption by $90 (i.e. $100 * 0.9 = $90).
