KRUGMAN'S
MACROECONOMICS for AP*
Margaret Ray and David Anderson
What you will learn
in this Module:
• The nature of the multiplier, which shows how
initial changes in spending lead to further
changes
• The meaning of the aggregate consumption
function, which shows how current disposable
income affects consumer spending
• How expected future income and aggregate
wealth affect consumer spending
• The determinants of investment spending
• Why investment spending is considered a
leading indicator of the future state of the
economy
The Multiplier: An Informal
Introduction
• Marginal Propensity to
Consume (MPC)
• Marginal Propensity to
Save (MPS)
MPC = ∆ Consumer Spending
∆ Disposable Income
MPS =
∆ Saving
∆ Disposable Income
MPC + MPS = 1
MPC = 1 - MPS
MPS = 1 - MPC
Thus the MPC = (Δ C/Δ Yd) = .8 and
The MPS = (Δ S/Δ Yd) = .20.
So if this household receives $1 of additional Yd, they will
consume 80 cents and save 20 cents of it
The Multiplier: An Informal
Introduction
• Autonomous Change in
Aggregate Spending (AAS)
• Multiplier
1
∆Y = _________
X ∆AAS
(1 - MPC)
Multiplier =
_____
∆Y = _________
1
∆AAS (1 - MPC)
The multiplier is the ratio of the total change in real GDP
caused by an autonomous change in aggregate spending
to the size of that autonomous change.
The Multiplier: An Informal
Introduction
• Ted is a chicken farmer in the local community.
• Suppose Ted decides to spend $1000 on some chicken
coops at Anthony’s farm supply shop. This money now
starts to be circulated around the economy.
•
• 1. Anthony now has $1000 from the sale and spends 80%
($800) on clothes at Marcia‘s boutique.
• 2. Marcia now has $800 from the sale and spends 80%
($640) to fix her car at Pat’s garage.
• 3. Pat now has $640 from the sale and spends 80% ($512)
at Dianna’s grocery store.
• 4. Dianna now has $512 from the sale and spends 80%
($409.60) with Catherine’s catering company.
The Multiplier: An Informal
Introduction
• After 5 rounds of spending, we’ve created $2361.60, more
than DOUBLE the original injection of spending!!!!! If we
had continued until someone was trying to spend 80% of
nothing, Ted’s initial $1000 purchase would have
multiplied to a total of $5000 in income/spending.
The spending multiplier can be shown to be equal to:
M = 1/(1-MPC) = 1/(1-.80) = 1/.2 = 5
Since MPC + MPS = 1, we can also say that M=1/MPS
Current Disposable Income and
Consumer Spending
•Relationship between Disposable Income and
Consumer Spending
Consumption Function
Generally the consumption function is modeled:
c = a + MPC yd
Using the hypothetical information from the table above:
c = 5 + .80Yd
•If Yd increases from $10 to $20, C increases from $13 to $21.
What Causes Shifts of the
Aggregate Consumption Function?
•Changes in Expected Future Disposable
Income
• Permanent Income Hypothesis
•Changes in Aggregate Wealth
• Life-cycle Hypothesis
Investment Spending
• Planned Investment
Although consumer
spending is much larger
than investment
spending, booms and
busts in investment
spending tend to drive
the business cycle. In
fact, most recessions
originate as a fall in
investment spending.
