The formulae for Keynesian Investment Multiplier is: k = \(\frac{1 }{\text 1 - MPC }\) If 40% of increase in income is saved then MPS is 0.4 and the value of MPC can be written as 0.6 as, MPC = 1 - MPS So, k = \(\frac{1 }{\text 1 - MPC }\) k = \(\frac{1 }{\text 1 - 0.6 }\) k = \(\frac{1 }{\text 0.4 }\) k = \(\frac{10 }{\text 4}\) k = 2.5 |
