Determination of Income and Employment
Answers
- Autonomous savings.
Explanation: ‘a’ is constant which implies that this saving takes place even when income is zero and is independent of the level of income.So, ‘a’ denotes autonomous savings.
- Autonomous savings.
- True.
Explanation:
MPS + MPC = 1
MPC = 1 – MPS
- True.
- (1-b) i.e. MPS is positive
Explanation: b stands for MPC. So, when b is less than 1, evidently 1-b is positive or 1-b>0
- (1-b) i.e. MPS is positive
- {tex}1 \over MPS{/tex}Explanation: {tex}1 \over MPS{/tex}
- Price level do not rise before full employment because AS is assumed to be perfectly elastic. Whatever be the level of aggregate demand, AS converges with AD so that AD and AS tends to be equal without causing any change in price level. But when AD increases beyond its full employment level, then the mounting pressure of demand on the existing output casuses a rise in prices.
- The inventories will rise.
- It is a situation in which all those people who are able and willing to work at the prevailing wage rate get work.
- i.&ii .Autonomous Investment: Establishment of public health centres and governments investment on saving Sunder ban forests. These investments are not done with profit motive.iii.Induced Investment : Airtel investment is driven by profit motive.
- Given C = 500 + (0.9)Y,
Investment expenditure, (I) = Rs.3,000;
At equilibrium level, Y = C + I
{tex} \Rightarrow {/tex} Y = 500 + (0.9) Y+ 3,000
{tex} \Rightarrow {/tex} Y – (0.9)Y = 3,500 => (0.1)Y = 3,500{tex}Y = \frac { 3,500 } { 0 .1 } = 735,000{/tex}. Therefore equilibrium level of Income = Rs. 735,000. - Given, Marginal Propensity to Save (MPS ) = 0.2, Income (Y) = 22,500, {tex}\overline { C } = 500{/tex},
We know that, MPC = 1 – MPS = 1 – 0.2 = 0.8.
At equilibrium level,
Y = C + I
Therefore 22,500 = 500 + (0.8) 22,500 + I
Or I = 22,500 – 500 – 18,000 = Rs.4,000. Hence we have Investment Expenditure equal to Rs. 4000. - Deficient demand refers to the situation when AD is short of AS corresponding to the full employment level in the economy.
- Effect on output : Low level of investment and employment implies low level of output.
- Effect on employment : Because of deficiency of demand, investment level is reduced. Accordingly, level of employment tends to fall.
- Effect on prices : Fall in prices is the immediate consequence of deficient demand.
- Calculation of Autonomous Consumption {tex}( \overline { C } ){/tex}:Given,
- National Income (Y) = Rs 1,200
- Investment Expenditure (I) = Rs 100,
- Marginal Propensity to Save (MPS) = 0.20
Calculation of Marginal Propensity to Consume (MPC or b)
= 1 – Marginal Propensity to Save(MPS)
=1-0.20 = 0.80
{tex}\therefore{/tex} MPC = 0.80
Also, Y = C + I, or Y {tex}= \overline { C } + b Y + I{/tex} ….. (i)
{tex}\because \quad C = \overline { C } + b Y{/tex}
On substituting the given variables in equation (i), we get
{tex}1,200 = \overline { \mathrm { C } } + 080 \times 1,200 + 100{/tex}
{tex}1,200 = \overline { C } + 960 + 100{/tex}
{tex}= \overline { \mathrm { C } } + 1,060{/tex}
{tex}\therefore \overline { C }{/tex}= 1,200 – 1,060 = Rs 140
{tex}\therefore{/tex} Autonomous consumption expenditure {tex}( \overline { C } ) = Rs \ 140{/tex} - AD = AS
C + I = C + S
I = C + S -C = S- when planned saving is less than planned investment, then national income will decrease as shown in the below diagram.
- When, investment > saving [at Y1], then production will have to be increased to meet the excess demand. Consequently, national income will increase leading to rise in saving until saving becomes equal to investment. It is here that equilibrium level of income is established because what the savers intend to save becomes equal to what the investors intend to invest.
- when planned saving is less than planned investment, then national income will decrease as shown in the below diagram.
- Induced Investment:
- Induced investment is positively related to the level of income in an economy. At higher level of income, consumption expenditure tends to increase. Increased consumption expenditure or level of demand raises expected profitability of the producer who accordingly are induced to make greater investment.
- Induced investment curve has a positive slope showing direct relationship between income and investment.
- Autonomous Investment :
An investment which is not influenced by expected profitability or level of income is called autonomous investment. In fact, it is an investment expenditure incurred by the government with a view to promoting the level of aggregate demand in the economy when AD falls short of AS, resulting in fall in prices and rise in unemployment. The govt. intends in push up the level of AD by way of its autonomous investment. Autonomous investment is independent of the level of income. It is also profit and income inelastic.
- Induced Investment:
- Given, National Income (Y) = 1,000,
Marginal Propensity to Save (MPS) = 0.20,
Autonomous Consumption {tex}(\overline C ){/tex} = 100
MPC or b = 1 – MPS = 1 – 0.20 = 0.80
Y = C + I
C = {tex}\overline C {/tex} + b(Y)
∴ Y = {tex}\overline C {/tex} + b(Y) + I
∴ On substituting the given variables above, we get
{tex}1,000 = 100 + 0.80 \times 1,000 + I{/tex}
I = 1000 – 900 = 100
i.e. Investment = Rs 100
