for simplicity, let X=M G = 1 I = 2 if you like decimals C = 3 + 0.75Y or if you prefer fractions C = 3 + 3/4Y the simple multiplier is equal to

the simple multiplier is equal to 4

Step-by-step explanation:

In an economic model,

Y=  C + I + G + (X - M)

the average expenditure Y must be equal  to the totality of the output

If C = 3 + 0.75Y

where;

marginal propensity to consume MPC = 0.75

Then,

Y = 3 + 0.75Y + 2 + 1

Y = 6+0.75 Y

Y - 0.75 Y = 6

0.25 Y = 6

Y = 6/0.25

Y = 24

However,  the simple multiplier can be expressed as:

= 4

2425
