Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

The marginal propensity to consume, or MPC, is the change in consumption expenditure divided by the change in disposable income. The MPC tells the proportion of any change in disposable income spent on consumption expenditure. The marginal propensity to consume is equal to the slope of the consumption function.
