What is the relationship between average propensity to consume and average propensity to save? Can the value of average propensity to save be negative ? If yes, when ?

Answer»

Solution :The sum of the AVERAGE Propensity to Consume (APC) and Average Propensity to SAVE (APS) is always EQUAL to unity, i.e., APC + APS = 1. It is so because the money income can EITHER be spent on consumption or it can be SAVED.
Yes, APS can be negative when S is negative or when C > Y.
