Question : 8 of 49
Marks: +1, -0
If increase in National Income is equal to increase in Savings, the value of Marginal Propensity to Consume would be _______.
(Fill up the blank with correct alternative)
Solution:  
(d) equal to zero
Explanation:
Increase in National Income = Increase in Saving
Or ΔY=ΔS\Delta Y=\Delta S
We Know that ΔY=ΔC+ΔS\Delta Y=\Delta C+\Delta S
  ΔY−ΔS=ΔC\;\Delta Y-\Delta S=\Delta C
  ΔY−ΔY=ΔC\;\Delta Y-\Delta Y=\Delta C
(Because here, ΔY=ΔC\Delta Y=\Delta C )
0=ΔC0=\Delta C
Now, MPC=  ΔCΔY=  0ΔY=0\mathrm{MPC}=\;\frac{\Delta C}{\Delta Y}=\;\frac{0}{\Delta Y}=0
