![When money is spent on goods and services, those that receive the money also
spend some of it. The people receiving some of the twice-spent money will spend
some of that, and so on. Economists call this chain reaction the multiplier effect. In a
hypothetical isolated community, the local government begins the process by
spending D dollars. Suppose that each recipient of spent money spends 100c% and
saves 100s% of the money that he or she receives. The values c and s are called the
marginal propensity to consume and the marginal propensity to save and, of course,
c+ s = 1.
The number k = 1/s is called the multiplier. What is the multiplier if the marginal
propensity to consume is 60%?
