`MPS = "("("Change in Savings")/("Change in Income")")" = "("(DeltaS)/(DeltaY)")" = (20)/(100) = 0.20`
Investment Multiplier (K) = `(1)/(MPS) = (1)/(0.20) = 5`
Investment Multiplier (K) = `(1)/(MPS) = (1)/(0.20) = 5`
Investment Multiplier (K) = `("Change in Income")/("Change in Investment") = "("(Deltay)/(DeltaI)")"`
`5 = ("₹"6000)/("Change in Investment"(Deltal))`
Change in Investment `(Deltal)` = ₹ 1200 crores
Increase in investment by ₹ 1200 crores is required to attain additional income of ₹ 6000 crores .
