Multiplier effect – The number by which a change in investment must be multiplied to result in the final change of total output. Here on MCQs.club we have prepared Multiple Choice Questions (MCQs) on multiplier and accelerator economics that fully cover the difference between multiplier and accelerator, multiplier accelerator interaction, multiplier and accelerator effect/concept/interaction. These MCQs are useful for Competitive exams, Professional Accountancy exams and Business management exams.

  1. Which of the following is true for Multiplier effect?
    1. The number by which a change in investment must be multiplied to result in the final change of total output.
    2. The concept proposes that an increase in private investment can increase output and employment, and a decrease in investment will cause it to contract.
    3. The term multiplier is used to show that the spending done to boost investment has an amplified effect on output.
    4. All of the above
  1. Which of the following is true for Marginal rate of tax on income?
    1. The percentage of income that is paid to the government in the form of tax.
    2. It is also known as the marginal propensity of tax (MPT)

    3. Both A&B
    4. None
  1. In an open economy, the value of the multiplier depends on:
    1. The marginal propensity to save

    3. The level of taxes
    4. All of the above
  1. Which of the following is true for Accelerator effect?
    1. Investment levels in an economy are positively related to a change in the rate of GDP
