Investment multiplier = 0.25 and change in final income = Rs 2,000 crore Investment multiplier = 0.5 and change in final income = Rs 3,000 crore Investment multiplier = 0.1 and change in final income = Rs 1,000 crore Investment multiplier = 0.33 and change in final income = Rs 1,667 crore |

Investment multiplier refers to the increase in the aggregate income of the economy as a result of an increase in the investments done by the government. The ratio of ΔY to ΔI is called the investment multiplier. K = \(\frac{1}{\text{1 - MPC}}\) K = \(\frac{1}{\text{MPS}}\) K = \(\frac{1}{\text{0.3}}\) K = \(\frac{10}{\text{3}}\) K = 0.33 Also, K = \(\frac{ΔY}{ΔI}\) \(\frac{10}{3}\) = \(\frac{ΔY}{500}\) ΔY = \(\frac{10}{3}\) * 500 ΔY = \(\frac{5000}{3}\) ΔY = 1667 |
