, Lesson objectives
Explain average propensities and marginal propensities and their effects on the
multiplier. These include:
the marginal propensity to consume (MPC)
the marginal propensity to save (MPS)
the marginal propensity to tax (MPT)
the marginal propensity to import (MPM)
Explain what is meant by the multiplier ratio, and how changes to injections and
leakages can influence the multiplier ratio
Explain how increases in injections lead to increases in income – the multiplier
process
Explain the effects of the multiplier on national income, and appreciate how this can
lead to shifts in AD (aggregate demand)
Explain that the multiplier is the inverse of the marginal propensity to withdraw, and
can be calculated using 1/(1-MPC) and 1/MPW, where MPW=MPS+MPT+MPM
Explain the effects of the downward multiplier on national income
