Question : The investment multiplier is 4. If there is an autonomous increase in investment spending of INR INR 1,000,
what will be the change in equilibrium income?
Option 1: INR 1,000
Option 2: INR 4,000
Option 3: INR 5,000
Option 4: INR 9,000
Correct Answer: INR 5,000
Solution : The correct answer is (B) INR 4,000
Given: Investment multiplier (K) = 4
Autonomous increase in investment spending = INR 1,000
Change in equilibrium income = K * Autonomous increase in investment spending
Change in equilibrium income = 4 * 1000
Change in equilibrium income = 4000
Therefore, the change in equilibrium income is INR 4,000.
Question : The investment multiplier is 4. If there is an autonomous increase in investment spending of INR 500, what will be the change in equilibrium income?
Option 1: INR 500
Option 2: INR 2,000
Option 3: INR 1,000
Option 4: INR 2,500
Question : The marginal propensity to consume (MPC) is 0.75. If there is an autonomous increase in investment spending of INR 1,000, what will be the change in equilibrium income?
Option 1: INR 750
Option 2: INR 1,000
Option 3: INR 1,333.33
Option 4: INR 4,000
Question : The investment multiplier is 3. If there is an autonomous increase in investment spending of INR 800, what will be the change in equilibrium income?
Option 1: INR 2,300
Option 2: INR 2,400
Option 3: INR 2,800
Option 4: INR 3,200
Question : The marginal propensity to consume (MPC) is 0.8. If there is an autonomous increase in investment spending of INR 1,500, what will be the change in equilibrium income?
Option 1: INR 1,200
Option 2: INR 1,500
Option 3: INR 7,500
Option 4: INR 6,000
Question : The multiplier effect refers to the:
Option 1: Increase in consumption due to an increase in income
Option 2: Increase in investment due to an increase in consumption
Option 3: Increase in income due to an increase in investment
Option 4: Increase in income due to an initial change in spending
