3. The multiplier effect of a change in government purchases Suppose there is some hypothetical closed economy in which households spend $0.80 of each additional dollar they earn and save the remaining $0.20. The marginal propensity to consume (MPC) for this economy is0.8   , and the spending multiplier for this economy is5   .     Suppose the government in this economy decides to decrease government purchases by $300 billion. The decrease in government spending will lead to a decrease in income, creating an initial change in consumption equal to-$240 billion   . This decreases income yet again, leading to a second change in consumption equal to-$192 billion   . The total change in demand resulting from the initial change in government spending is-$1.5 trillion   .   The following graph shows the aggregate demand curve (AD1AD1) for this economy before the change in government spending.
