Calculate the value of the multiplier and find the value of the consumption quantity that is independent of income from the following equation.

C=150+0.75Y

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 1

From C=150+0.75YC = 150 + 0.75Y, the MPC is 0.750.75, so the multiplier k=11−0.75=4k = \frac{1}{1-0.75} = 4. Autonomous consumption, which is independent of income, is the intercept 150. Hence 4 and 150.
