7. THE MULTIPLIER EFFECT For Example… Change in GDP = Multiplier x initial change in spending Multiplier = Change in Real GDP Initial Change in Spending
8. THE MULTIPLIER EFFECT Increase in Investment of $5 Second Round Third Round Fourth Round Fifth Round All Other Rounds Total (1) Change in Income (2) Change in Consumption (MPC = .75) (3) Change in Saving (MPS = .25) $ 5.00 3.75 2.81 2.11 1.58 4.75 $ 3.75 2.81 2.11 1.58 1.19 3.56 $ 1.25 .94 .70 .53 .39 1.19 $20.00 $15.00 $ 5.00

Step by Step Working of “Multiplier” [MPC is .5] $1,000.00 500.00 250.00 125.00 62.50 31.25 15.625 7.8125 3.90625 1.953125 .9765625 .48828125 .244140625 .1220703125 .06103515625 .030517578125 .015258789062 $2,000,000,000 [ Increased by a multiple of 2] “ What A Girl Wants.” Government increases spending by $1 billion with a multiplier of 2 On new highways Highway workers buy new boats Boat builders buy plasma TVs TV factory workers buy new cars Auto workers buy clothes Apparel workers spend $ on movies Movie moguls spend money on Christina Agulera songs.
12. The First Round of Government Spending Causes The Biggest Splash MPC of 75% G spends $ 200 billion on the highways . Highway workers save 25% of $200 billion [$50 billion] & spend 75% or $150 billion on boats. Boat makers save 25% of $150 bil. [$37.50 bil.] & spend 75% or $112.50 bil. on iPod Minis, etc.
13. MPC 1/MPS = M .90 1/.10 = 10 .80 1/.20 = 5 .75 1/.25 = 4 .60 1/.40 = 2.5 .50 1/.50 = 2 M E [Change in G, Ig, or Xn] = 1/MPS

Expected gross profits = $1,100 or a 10% return . [$100/$1,000 x 100 = 10%] [At 8 % , invest ; at 12 % , don’t invest ] B. Real interest rate [ nominal interest rate-inflation ] Single Firm

23. Balanced Budget Multiplier [$20 billion] [ “T” affects AD indirectly thru “C ”; “G” affects AD directly ] GDP = $80 Net Change in GDP = The increase in “T” means we would have consumed $15 and kept $5 in our pockets. The increase in “G” flows directly into the economy. M E = 1/MPS M E = 1/.25 = 4 So, 4 x $20 = $80 G $20 MT = MPC/MPS=.75/.25= 3 So, 3 x -$20 = -$60 GDP = -$60 Ca= -$15 Sa= -$5 T $20 $470 billion AS AD1 $490 billion PL AD 2 +$20 Balanced Budget Multiplier Is ALWAYS 1.
