Answer to Question 1

True

Answer to Question 2

One of the most important determinants of economic growth is the savings rate. If individuals wish to consume more in the future, they must consume less than their total income today. The savings from individuals become available to businesses that in turn use it for investment purposes in plant, equipment, and the expansion or start-up of businesses and such investment will increase future consumption possibilities.
