Macroeconomics : Level of Income, Consumption, Saving

We know that economic recycle of duo sector is consists "firms" & "households".

Firms
  • Responsible to provide goods (product & services) to households
  • Receive production factor for output production from households

       Households
  • Provide firms the factor of production
  • Receive income from firms for the factor that provide to firms
  • Income of households contribute to "consumption" and "saving". 


Formula that usually use to explain level of consumption and saving: 

(The Average Propensity To Consume : APC) 
  • The ratio between level of households consumption (c) and level of income (y). 
  • Formula:    
                                          C
                                          Y
  • It shows more higher level of income is more smaller of APC value.

(The Average Propensity To save: APS)
  • The ratio between level of households saving (s) and level of income (y). 
  • Formula: 
                                             S
                                             Y
  • It shows more higher level of income is more smaller of APS value. 

(Marginal Propensity To Consume: MPC) 
  • The ratio between ∆ in level of households consumption (c) cause the ∆ in level of income. 
  • Formula: 
                                              ∆C
                                              Y
  • It shows if the income increase 1%, so how much percentage the ∆ in level of households consumption. 


(Marginal Propensity To Save: MPS) 
  • The ratio between ∆ in level of households saving (s) cause the ∆ in level of income. 
  • Formula: 
                                              ∆S
                                              Y
  • It shows if the income increase 1%, so how much percentage the ∆ in level of households saving. 
  • Value of MPC and MPS, must between 0 and 1. 
  • if value of MPC + MPS must equal to 1.
