Answer:

$0.70 and 3.3

Explanation:

Data provided in the question

Household spending for each additional dollar = $0.70

And, the remaining amount = $0.30

So in the given case,

The marginal propensity to consume (MPC) = household spending for each additional dollar i.e $0.70

And, the Spending multiplier is

= 1 ÷ 1 - MPC

= 1 ÷ 1 - $0.70

= 1 ÷ $0.30

= 3.3
