Chapter 10: 0utline • Saving and Investment around the World • A Saving Taxonomy • Household Saving and Consumption • The Keynesian Absolute-Income Hypothesis • The Relative-Income Hypothesis • The Permanent-Income Hypothesis • The Life-Cycle Hypothesis • Growth and Saving: Which Causes Which? • Other Determinants of Private Saving • Corporate Saving • Government Saving • Foreign Saving
Learning Objectives-Chapter 10 • The record of saving and investment in developing countries. • The relationship among tax revenues, public sector expenditure, and government saving. • The observed patterns of household saving behavior and the theories of household saving. • The importance of foreign private saving. • The relationship between growth and savings • The different impacts of corporate saving, government saving, and foreign saving
Capital Fundamentalism • The development strategy of the 1950s & 60s was “Capital Fundamentalism” • Related to theories of Economic Growth such as Harrod-Domar Model, Lewis Model • Data for Savings, Investment for countries table 10.1 • Patterns of Savings Around the world
Key Component of Saving • Interrelationship of key components of savings • Total saving= Domestic + Foreign Saving • Domestic =Government + Private saving • Foreign Saving= Official + Private • Private = Household + Corporate • Official = Grants + Loans • Private= Debt + equity See Figure 10.3
Household Saving and Consumption Two main reasons of savings by households: 1.To Generate future income 2. To Protect against unexpected fall in income. “Precautionary motive”
Theories of Household Saving Behavior • Theories that explain 3 observed patterns • 1. within a particular country at a given time • 2. Within particular country over time • 3. Across countries savings vary with no clear relationship to income
4 Alternative theories of Saving behavior • 1. Keynesian Absolute-Income Hypothesis • Household saving= f( disposable income) • C= c* + (1-s) Yd :where C= private consumption, s= marginal propensity to save, and Yd= disposable income • If s=0.15, c*=autonomous consumption • If S=Yd then S= -c+sYd
Keynesian Absolute Income Hypothesis • This idea is shown by Figure 10.4 • To the left of A, consumption exceeds disposable income and saving is negative • To the right of point A, Saving is positive
Fig. 10.5: Consumption and Savings in the Short-run and Long-run
Consumption & Saving in the Short run and long term with rising income over time • Figure 10.5 shows the following • 45 degree line shows all points where consumption + saving = Income • 4 Short run functions for each year 1990, 2000, 2010, and 2020 are show what people would have spent at various levels in those years • The flatness of the these curves shows consumes do not change consumption habits in the short-run • In the long consumption path is more less flatter or more steper.
The Relative Income Hyothesis –Dusenberry hypothesis • The Dusenbery hypothesis is a form of relative income hypothesis based on the idea consumption and saving depend not only on current income but also on previous level of income. • Cd1= (c +bCh) + (1-s) Yd1 • Cd1, Yd1= consumption & income in period 1 • Ch is previous high consumption level • b= is constant regardless of income. The basic idea is that consumption in the current economy tends to rachet upward overtime as income grows. • The relationships between Absolute income hypothesis and that of Relative hypothesis is shown in figure 10.4
Dependency Ratio • Dependency Ratio from young population 15 yeas or less • What is the Impact of dependency ratio on Savings & Investment? • Dependency Ration from Older (retired) non-working Population over 65 • Where does the main dependency ratio come from for ICs and LIC’s? for Africa?
