Study Notes
Consumption and Disposable Income
- The relationship between consumption and disposable income is represented by the equation C = f(Y), where C is consumption and Y is disposable income.
- When disposable income increases, consumption also increases, but not by as much as the increase in disposable income.
- The rate of increase in consumption is less than the rate of increase in disposable income.
- The marginal propensity to consume is the term used to describe a person's tendency to spend more as their disposable income increases.
- The equation C = f(Y) represents the functional relationship between consumption and disposable income, showing that consumption is a function of disposable income.
