Frequently Asked Questions

How is APC calculated?

APC = Total Consumption / Total Disposable Income.

What does the APC value mean?

An APC of 0.75 means 75% of disposable income is spent on consumption, with the remaining 25% saved. APC tends to fall as income rises, since higher earners save a larger share of each additional dollar.
