To find the MPC he first had to take 1-MPS (1-0.76) which gives you 0.24. Then he used the formula 1/(1-MPC) Which was 1/(1-0.24) etc. So what he did is correct. BUT an easier way is that if given the MPS, to find multiplier just do 1÷MPS. You get the answer
In an open economy shouldn't multiplier be 1/(mps+mrt+mpm)= 1/(0.16+0+0.08)=4.17 I also don't understand why he said the mpc is 0.76. Shouldn't it be 0.84 from the consumption function?
Thankyou so much it's really help me to understand 🙏
You forgot to turn off the camera Doc 😅😅😅!! Thanks for the heads up
Thank you. On the multiplier is it not 1/(1-marginal propensity to spend) = 1/(1-0.76) = 1/0.24
There are two ways:
i) 1/(1-MPC)
ii) 1/ MPS
Note that 1-MPC equals to MPS

was very helpful thanks
thank you so much...greatings from Kenya
Hey there! I am from Kenya too
Excellent
The multiplier isn't in a closed economy
Thank you so much!
Thank you
What's the value of multiplier ? Why is it so ? In an open economy it is 1/ 1-b-m ?
In an open economy shouldn't multiplier be 1/(mps+mrt+mpm)= 1/(0.16+0+0.08)=4.17
I also don't understand why he said the mpc is 0.76. Shouldn't it be 0.84 from the consumption function?
Yesss it should be 0.84,,
What about the T. Where do we ever use it?
What if C had a disposable income
thank you
