Suppose that when Sue’s disposable income is $10,000, she spends $8,000, and when her disposable income is $20,000, she spends $
soldier1979 [14.2K]

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

I want to know what is the correct thing to invest into
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

Roth ira

Explanation:

Because you are sort of young, you should invest into a roth ira, because there are retirement tax breaks put on it, plus in an smp 500 account it will grow with the market at about 8% interest per year on average. this is good, because it is pretty much guaranteed growth. that will double the amount of money for 5 or 6 times over creating a nice retirement fund for your old age, but honestly there are other strategies, this is just for sticking money in the ground and forgetting about it, letting it grow for you. low risk, and relatively high reward after a long period of time.

hope this helps
