Term
Definition
multiplier effect   an economic term, referring to the proportional amount of increase, or decrease, in final income that results from an injection, or withdrawal, of capital  
πŸ—‘
what brings about the multiplier effect   a change in one of the components of AD leads to a multiplied final change in the equilibrium level of GDP(injections of new demand stimulates further rounds of spending as β€˜one person’s spending is another’s income’)  
πŸ—‘
formula for multiplier   1/marginal propensity to save OR 1/(1-marginal propensity to consume)  
πŸ—‘
formula for multiplier with a closed economy with a government sector   1 / (sum of marginal propensity to save + marginal rate of tax)  
πŸ—‘
formula for multiplier with an open economy with a government sector   1 / (sum of propensities to save + tax + import)  
πŸ—‘
Keynesian multiplier   a theory that states the economy will flourish the more the government spends  
πŸ—‘
positive multiplier   when an initial increase in an injection(or decrease in leakage) leads to a greater final increase in real GDP  
πŸ—‘
negative multiplier   when an initial decrease in an injection(or increase in leakage) leads to a greater final decrease in real GDP  
πŸ—‘
marginal propensity to consume   proportion of additional income that is spent in th domestic economy  
πŸ—‘
marginal propensity to import   the proportion of additional income spent on imports  
πŸ—‘
marginal propensity to save   proportion of additional income that is saved  
πŸ—‘
marginal propensity to tax   the proportion of additional income that is paid to the government as tax  
πŸ—‘
marginal propensity to withdraw   proportion of additional income leaving the circular flow (sum of MPM, MPS and MPT)  
πŸ—‘
MPC   marginal propensity to consume  
πŸ—‘
MPM   marginal propensity to import  
πŸ—‘
MPS   marginal propensity to save  
πŸ—‘
MPT   marginal propensity to tax  
πŸ—‘
MPW   marginal propensity to withdraw  
πŸ—‘
MPC formula   change in total consumption / change in gross income  
πŸ—‘
MPS formula   change in total savings / change in gross income  
πŸ—‘
when is there a high multiplier value?   economy has lots of spare capacity(negative output gap) to meet higher AD/MPM, MPS and MPT is low  
πŸ—‘
when is there a low multiplier value?   economy is close to capacity druing boom phase/ MPM is high(extra demand leaks)/higher inflation causes rising interest rates that dampen other components of AD  
πŸ—‘
