Does Not Show Price Level Changes
Does not show Demand-Pull Inflation
Does Not Deal With Cost-Push Inflation [Stagflation]
It ignores premature demand-pull inflation [Inflation just before FE GDP]
It does not allow for “self-correction”
In this Chapter we will learn:
1. How changes in income affect consumption [& saving].
2. About factors other than income that can affect
consumption [like wealth or expectations]
3. How changes in real interest rates affect investment.
4. How factors other than the real interest rate can affect
investment (like profit expectations or stock on hand).
5. Why changes in investment increase or decrease real
GDP by a multiple amount due to the multiplier effect.

1. The most important determinant of consumer spending is
(wealth/indebtedness/income).
2. As aggregate income increases, consumption and saving
both (increase/decrease).
3. The (consumption/saving) schedule shows how much
households plan to consume at various income levels.
4. Dissaving occurs where consumption (exceeds/is less than) Y.
5. If the consumption schedule shifts upward [not caused by
a tax change], the saving schedule will shift (upward/downward).
6. (The expectation of a recession/A change in consumer incomes/
An expected change in the price level) will not cause the
consumption curve to shift.

APC - percentage of income (“Y”) consumed.
APS – percentage of income (“Y”) saved.
APC = C/Y(DI)=$48,000/$50,000 = .96

MPC, MPS, & the Multiplier
ME=1/MPS
MPC - % change in Y consumed.
MPS - % change in Y saved.
MPC = C/ Y = $750/$1,000 = .75
MPS = S/ Y = $250/$1,000 = .25
Multiplier [1/MPS]=1/.25=$1/.25 = “ME” of 4
[MPC is important for G in policy making decisions.]
*The ME is the reciprocal of the MPS.
The “ME” works like a concentric circle.

Reasons why the “Simple Multiplier” is not as strong as indicated.
1. Some spending will be on imports, reducing the size of the M.
2. It ignores PL changes which reduce the multiplier.
3. It ignores taxes which reduce the multiplier.

When the G gives a tax cut, the MT is smaller than the
ME because a fraction [MPS] is saved and only the
MPC is initially spent. So, the MT = -MPC/MPS.

The larger the MPC, the smaller the MPS, and the
greater the multiplier. This is the “simple multiplier”
because it is based on a “simple model of the economy”.

Let’s Go To Padre Island and Party With The Multiplier
UT student
These are
Texas A&M
students
at Padre.
• During spring break, college students like to head to Padre Island.
•
•
•
•
•
The “multiplier” is getting ready to work.
With dollars in their pockets, the students spend money on food and
drink, motel rooms, dance clubs, etc. These dollars raise total income
there by some multiple of itself.
College students buy pizzas, beer, and sodas. The people who sell
these items find their incomes rising. They spend some fraction
of their increased income, which generates additional income for
others.
If the students spend $8 million at Padre and the MPC is .60, then
college students will increase income in Padre by $20 million.
When the networks show scenes on the beach, the average person
simply sees college students having a good time.
But – economists see the multiplier at work, generating higher levels
of income for many of the residents of Padre Island.
If business activity slows, then sales of houses and
autos decrease. Home construction workers and
auto workers get laid off. Auto companies cancel
their orders for steel and steel workers laid off.
Furniture sales are down so some of the furniture
workers are laid off. Laid off people don’t buy new
clothes or cars so more lay-offs. They also don’t eat
out as much so some restaurant workers laid off.
Company profits are down, depressing stock prices,
making people poorer, so they buy even less.
And so it goes, the multiplier in reverse.
NS 7 – 10
7. The APC indicates the percent of total income
that will be (consumed/saved).
8. The MPC is the fraction of a change in income
which is (spent/saved).
9. The greater is the MPC, the (larger/smaller) the
MPS, and the (larger/smaller) the multiplier.
10. With a MPS of .4, the MPC will be (.4/.2/.6)
and the multiplier will be (2/2.5/4).

one person, to another, to another…

With G&T increased by the same amount, & since
1st round G is not subject to the MPS but T is, this 3%
would result in an “expansionary fiscal policy” and 2%
increase GDP by the same amount as the equal
increase in G and T, which would increase AD.

This increase in AD would increase GDP, employment and price level. The
increase in price level *increases demand for money and this increases
interest rates.

The increase in “T” means we
would have consumed $15 and
kept $5 in our pockets.

The ME, MT, & MBB Multipliers
ME [C, Ig, G, or Xn] = 1/MPS = 1/.25 = 4
So, G increase of $20 bil. will incr Y by $80 bil. [+$20x4=$80]
And a G decrease of $20 bil. will decrease Y by $80 bil. [-$20x4=-$80 bil.]
MT = -MPC/MPS = -.75/.25 = -3
So, T decrease of $20 bil. will incr Y by $60 bil. [-$20 x-3=$60]
And a T increase of $20 bil. will decr Y by $60 bil. [+$20x-3=-$60]
MBB = 1 X

So, an increase in G&T of $20 bil. will incr Y by $20 bil. [1X$20=$20]

Any increase in expenditures x the M will increase GDP..
Any decrease in expenditures x the M will decrease GDP.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE NEXT FOUR AE SLIDES
We will start at $500 equilibrium GDP on each.
Inflationary spending gap
2. Of the three items (equilibrium GDP, change
in expenditures, & MPC), you will be given
two and if you know 2 you can always figure
out the 3rd. For instance, if you knew that
equilibrium GDP increased by $400 and the
multiplier was 4, then the change in expenditures
was obviously $100.

GDP gap
3. Except for 6, 9, 15, & 18, you will increase GDP gap
equilibrium GDP above $500, because there
is an increase in G, or a decrease in T, or
an equal increase in G&T.
Ex: With MPC of .75 & therefore a ME of 4,
an increase in G of $20 means +$20 x 4 = $580
4. On questions 6, 9, 15, & 18, you will decrease equilibrium
GDP below $500 because you are either decreasing G,
increasing T, or there is an equal decrease in G & T.
Ex: With MPC of .75 & therefore a ME of 4, a decrease
in G of $20 means -$20 x 4 = -$80; so ends up at $420.

• Durability
– Capital has a long life-span, therefore once it is built there
is no immediate need for further investment.
• Irregularity of Innovation
– Innovation does not proceed in a smooth linear fashion,
instead there are bursts of innovation followed by periods
of relative stability.
• Variability of Profits
– Profitability is subject to the forces of competition, cyclical
changes in the economy, & human management decisions.
• Variability of Expectations
– Political, social & natural phenomenon shape our positive
and negative expectations of the future.
