Thus we arrive at the fundamental equation of the model: ∆I*(1/α) = Iσ‚ where σ ∆I*(1/α) = ∆Y=Aggregate demand 1/α =multiplier‚ ∆I = change in investment σ = productivity of capital α = marginal propensity to save (1-MPC) Iσ = Aggregate supply Solving this equation by

addition‚ as china goods and services are consumed mainly by the people outside their own country (they are relying on the China’s export) ‚ when the spending power of Europeans decreases‚ so was the demand for Chinese goods which has shifted the Aggregate Demand curve to the left. This has shown an adverse impacts China’s economy as workers are mostly laid off due to the excess capacity that many manufacturing plant have experienced‚ causing loss of job opportunities which in turn has affected China

C = $100 + .8Y. Assume that Y = $1000 what is the level of consumption at this income level. C = $100 + .8($1000) = $100 + $800 = $900. 1. Using the above figure calculate the marginal propensity to consume between the aggregate income levels of $80 and $100. Also explain why this consumption function is linear. The marginal propensity to consume is equal to $15/$20 = .75. The consumption function is linear because the marginal propensity to consume is constant
