In a closed economy, households pay $0.40 in tax on every $1 increase in their gross income,
and spend 5/6 of every increase in their disposable income.
What is the value of the multiplier?
the correct ans is 2. how??? can someone show me with full calculations?

see bro
ok
apply the formulae for multiplier as 1/1-mpc
or 1/mps
i feel the latter one is quite complicated
anyways when putting it in the first one
look they say that tax paid is 0.40 and so 5/6 of the left over money after paying tax is spent....
thus u get exact 0.50
then put
1/1-0.50
So therefore,the multiplier is 2......
post some more plz

Hello one more doubt can anyone plzz solve it....
....i mean when MC=0????any idea
when is avergae total cost equal to teh avaerage fixed cost
average total cost will be equal to average fixed cost when total cost is composed of only fixed cost and there is no variable cost.
AC = AFC + AVC
AC = AFC + 0
Further marginal cost will be zero if cost is only fixed cost. As we know that fixed cost is the cost which does not change due to change in output while marginal cost is found by calculating change in cost and when there is no change in fixed cost there will be zero marginal cost.
Furthermore marginal cost is totally dependent upon variable cost and when variable cost is zero marginal cost will also be zero. hope you will get my point.

Look bro we have to find the marginal cost per day!!
thus
101*302=new cost of total wage paid=30502
and subtract the old one as margoinal cost is the extra cost involved
thus 100*300=30000
and now subtracting u get 30502-30000=502 is the additonal extar cost involved!!eaasy!!
bt make sure from Qamar Baloch
sir
