Question 1

What is the formula for the multiplier? Explain why this formula is considered to be too simple.



Question 2

Economists think that the marginal propensity to consume for the U.S. economy is somewhere around 0.9. Based on our simple multiplier formula, this would imply that the multiplier for the United States should be around 10. However, economists agree that the spending multiplier is closer to 2. What might explain this supposed anomaly?
