However, the results were less than spectacular. One reason could have been a failure to understand the marginal propensity to consume. Assume the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) was only 0.4. How much of that $900 billion went to increased consumption? Where did the rest of the money go? Increased consumption: Where did the rest go? Using MPC = 0.4, what is the spending multiplier (the actual numerical value please): What was the overall change in income as a result of the stimulus package after the multiplier completely works its way through the economy?arrow_forward
