Answer:

The correct answer is: 2,000; 0.4

Explanation:

We can write the initial consumption function as,

C = a + bY

8,000 = a + 10,000b

a = 8,000 - 10,000b

The new consumption function is,

14,000 = a + 20,000b

Putting value of a in this function

14,000 = 8,000 - 10,000b + 20,000b

14,000 - 8,000 = 10,000b

b  = \frac{6,000}{10,000}

b = 0.6

Putting the value of b in the initial function,

8,000 = a + 10,000 \times0.6

a = 8,000 - 6,000

a = $2,000

The marginal propensity to consume or b is 0.6.

The marginal propensity to save will be

= 1 - 0.6

= 0.4

New shoes are on SALE. You find a pair you like for $85 dollars. But you only have $45 with you. So, you pay $40 and charge the
stepladder [879]

Answer:

$46.8

Explanation:

The shoe is worth $85. You pay a deposit of $40. The balance is $45.

So $45  is charged at 8% interest for six months.

Simple interest I= p x r x t

In this case, p is $45,

r is 8%

t= 6 months or 0.5 years

I = $45 x 8/100 x 0.5

I= $45 x 0.08 x 0.5

I=$1.8

The total amount owed will be $45 + $1.8

=$46.8
