Solution

The multiplier in an economy is calculated using the formula 1/(1-MPC), where MPC is the marginal propensity to consume.

In this case, the MPC is given as 0.6 in the consumption function C = 100 + 0.6Y.

So, the multiplier would be 1/(1-0.6) = 1/0.4 = 2.5.

Therefore, the multiplier in this economy is 2.5.
