We know, saving function is expressed as $\text{S}=-\bar{\text{C}}+(1+\text{b})\text{Y},$
It means: -50 indicates that autonomous consumption $(\bar{\text{C}})=₹\ 50$ crore,
(Assuming value of C in ₹ crore) 0.2 indicates (1 - b), i.e. MPS = 0.2.
We know,
Consumption function is given as; $\text{C}=\bar{\text{C}}+\text{bY},\text{MPC}$ or b = 1 - MPS = 1 - 0.2 = 0.8
Income or Y = ₹ 5,000 crore,
Putting the values of $\text{b},\bar{\text{C}}$ and Y in the consumption function, we get: C
= 50 + 0.8 × 5,000 = ₹ 4050 crore Consumption expenditure (C) = ₹ 4050 crore.
