Answer» We know, Consumption function is expressed as : C `=overlinec + b(Y).` It means: 0.8 indicates MPC, i.e. MPC `=0.8.` Multiplier (k) `=(1)/(1-MPC)=(1)/(1-0.8)=5` We also know: Multiplier (k) `=("Change in Income"(DeltaY))/("Change in Investment"(Deltal))` Given: Change in Income `(DeltaY) =Rs.1,000` crores `5=(1,000)/("Change in Investment"(Deltal))` Additional Investment Needed `=Rs.200` crores |
