Question
Distinguish between average propensity to consume and average propensity to save. What is the relation between the two?
✓

Answer

Average Propensity to Consume (APC) is the ratio of total consumption to total income, i.e., $\text{APC}=\frac{\text{C}}{\text{Y}}.$

Whereas Average Propensity to Save (APS) is the ratio of total savings to total income, i.e., $\text{APS}=\frac{\text{S}}{\text{Y}}.$

The relationship between APC and APS is as follows:

APC + APS = 1

APC = 1 - APS

APS = 1 - APC
