To determine

Graphical representation of consumption function and its slope.

Introduction: Consumption function represents the functional relationship between total consumption and gross national income. Consumer spending depends on three factors: disposable income (Yd), autonomous consumption (a), i.e. when income is zero, and induced income (b), i.e. the percentage of extra income that is spent. The formula for the same is C = a + b*Yd.
