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.

The break-even level of income for an economy is given to be ₹ 5000 crore. If the economy saves 50 percent of additional income, calculate the value of autonomous consumption.
In an economy every time the income rises 20 percent of it is saved. Now suppose in the same economy investment rises by ₹ 200 crore. Calculate the following:
