Explanation / Answer

now if a 10 billion increase in spendings increase the output by 30 billion thyen MPC ,

10(1/MPS) = 30

so MPS = 1/3, NOW MPC+MPS = 1 SO MPC = 2/3

2- now if we allow for crowding out means that the multiplier must be large so as to convert 10 bilion to 30 billion,

so for thus to happen mps must be small and thus mpc must rise.

so mpc will be higher than the initial one
