Short Description: A line graph shows the relationship between consumption expenditure and disposable income for an economy. Long Description: The vertical axis is labelled, consumption expenditure (billions of 20 12 dollars per year) and ranges from 0 to 800. The horizontal axis is labelled, disposable income (billions of 20 12 dollars per year) and ranges from 0 to 800. The 45 degree line slopes upward from the origin and passes through the points B (200, 200), D (250, 250), and (500, 500). The line for consumption function slopes upward from (0, 100) and passes through the point (200, 250). The line intersects the 45 degree line at (500, 500).

Refer to Figure 11.5.1, which shows the consumption function. Which of the following equations is the consumption function?

C = 100 + 0.2YD

C = 100 + 0.8YD

C = 100 + 0.6YD

C = 500 + 0.8YD
