| | Marginal propensity to consume - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | One minus the MPC equals the marginal propensity to save. | | | The marginal propensity to consume (MPC) refers to the increase in personal consumer spending (consumption) that occurs with an increase in disposable income (income after taxes and transfers). | | | Mathematically, the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) function is expressed as the derivative of the consumption (C) function with respect to disposable income (Y). |

| | On the Mythology of the Keynesian Multiplier |
| | Therefore, if the marginal propensity to consume is.9, there may be only about 10 percent of income being devoted to investment spending and productivity creation in the next period as compared with a marginal propensity to consume of.8, which may ensure a 20 percent availability of income for investment spending. | | | And saving (not the hoarding of cash) is not a leakage from the income-expenditure stream; it is the main source of investment finance. | | | Unless the psychological propensities of the public are different from what we are supposing, we have here established the law that increased employment for investment must necessarily stimulate the industries producing for consumption and thus lead to a total increase of employment which is a multiple of the primary employment required by the investment itself. |
