IMPORTANCE of the MULTILPIER SIMPLIFIED
MULTIPLIER • Sequence of exchanges that would occur • FOLLOW THE SEQUENCE OF EVENTS • ROBIN HOOD DONATED $1,000 TO EACH STUDENT • EACH STUDENT HAS AN MPC OF .8
MULTIPLIER $1,000 x .8 =$800
MULTIPLIER $800 x .8 =$640
MULTIPLIER $800 x .8 =$640
MULTIPLIER $640 x .8 =$512
MULTIPLIER $640 x .8 =$512
MULTIPLIER $512 x .8 =$409.6
MULTIPLIER $512 x .8 =$409.6
MULTIPLIER $409.6 x .8 =$327.68
MULTIPLIER $409.6 x .8 =$327.68
MULTIPLIER $327.6 8x .8 =$262.14
MULTIPLIER $327.6 8x .8 =$262.14 (3951.42)
MULTIPLIER • SEQUENTIALLY THIS WILL GO ON UNTIL THE ADDITIONS TO INCOME AND THE ADDITIONS TO CONSUMPTION BOTH APPROACH ZERO • THE SUMS FOR INCOME AND CONSUMPTION APPREAR TO BE APPROACHING SPECIFIC NUMBERS • INCOME INCREASES GREATER THAN CONSUMPTION INCREASES
MULTIPLIER • INCOME INCREASES GREATER THAN CONSUMPTION INCREASES BY AN AMOUNT EQUAL TO THE NEW INCOME ($1,000) INITIALLY INTRODUCED BY ROBIN HOOD TO EACH STUDENT • INCOME AND CONSUMPTION BOTH INCREASE BY A MULTIPLE OF THE ORIGINAL CHANGE IN INCOME
MULTIPLIER • THE MPC IS IMPORTANT BECAUSE IT DETERMINES THE SIZE OF THE MULTIPLIER, WHICH DETERMINES HOW MUCH INCOME INCREASES. • RECREATE YOUR OWN MULTIPLIER USING AN MPC OF .9 AND THEN MPC 0F .5
MULTIPLIER • SIMPLE MULTIPLIER WORKS SIMILARLY ON ANY CHANGE IN NEW SPENDING WHETHER INITIATED BY CONSUMERS, BUSINESSES OR GOVERNMENT. • THE CHANGE IN SPENDING, MUST BE AUTONOMOUS
MULTIPLIER • AN ALGEBRAIC FORMULA HAS BEEN DEVELOPED THAT PERMITS MUCH QUICKER CALCULATION FOR THE AMOUNT BY WHICH TOTAL INCOME CHANGES WHEN SOMEONE INJECTS NEW SPENDING INTO THE ECONOMY. • THE FORMULA—CALLED THE MULTIPLIER • MULTIPLIER=1/(1-MPC)
FORMULA • ALGEBRAICALLY THE MULTIPLIER YIELDS THE SAME CHANGE IN TOTAL INCOME: • MPC OF .8 • [1/(1-MPC)= • 1/(1-.8)= • 1/.2= • 10/2X$1,000= • $5,000
FORMULA • ALGEBRAICALLY THE MULTIPLIER YIELDS THE SAME CHANGE IN TOTAL INCOME: • MPC OF .9 • [1/(1-MPC)= • 1/(1-.9)= • 1/.1= • 10/1X$1,000= • $10,000
FORMULA • ALGEBRAICALLY THE MULTIPLIER YIELDS THE SAME CHANGE IN TOTAL INCOME: • MPC OF .5 • [1/(1-MPC)= • 1/(1-.5)= • 1/.5= • 2/1X$1,000= • $2,000
CHANGE UP • REMEMBER THAT MPC+MPS=1 • THEREFORE, 1-MPC=MPS • WE CAN REPLACE EACH DENOMINATOR ABOVE WITH MPS • THIS ALLOWS US TO EXPRESS THE MULTIPLIER ALSO IN TERMS OF THE SAVINGS BEHAVIOR OF CONSUMERS • MULTIPLIER = 1/MPS
FORMULA • FOR PRACTICE : • MPS OF .2, .1 AND .5
