If an economy , Saving Function is given by S `=(-)50+0.2Y and Y = Rs. 2,000`crores, consumption expenditure for the economy would be Rs. 1,650 crores and the autonomous investment is Rs. 50 crores and the marginal propensity to consume is 0.8 True or False ? Justify your answer with proper calculattions.

Answer» Yes all the given values are correct
`S=-50+0.2Y`
`S=-50+.02(2,000) `
`=-50+400`
` =350` crore
At equilibrium level of income :
`Y=C+S`
`2,000=C+350`
` C=2,000 - 350`
`= 1,650 ` crores
MPC+MPS=1
MPC+0.2=1
MPC=1-0.2
`=0.8`
