Consumption ICJ is the amount of national income that is spent on goods and services produced #$
domestic firms in a given period of time. Consumption is the most sta#le and important component of
aggregate demand1 accounting for a#out two(thirds to three(fourths of G!+ in most countries.
The consumption function is a schedule relating total consumption to personal disposa#le income. It
usuall$ takes the form C 7 a 4 #;d 7 a 4 #I;(TJ1 where a is the minimum level of consumption that must
take place even if ;d is 0ero1 and # is the marginal propensit$ to consume.

&oreign e'change marketsM
The foreign e'change market is a specific s$stem of a countr$ for a foreign trade and currenc$ e'change.
&or e'ample1 if +akistan imports a product from -,"1 +akistan will #u$ dollars from rupees1 so +akistan
e'changed its currenc$ in foreign market.
&oreign markets depend on imports1 e'ports and currenc$ e'changed process. /$ these wa$s two

if the suppl$ curve of dollars shifts to the right due to rise in e'ports1 the government role in foreign
markets will #e ver$ good. /ecause due to rise in e'ports government will e'change mone$ and the$ will
gain high price against its currenc$. The government will increase its e'ports so it raises the price of its
currenc$ in foreign e'change.

If the demand curves for dollars shifts to right due to rise in imports1 the government should decrease the
imports rate to save the currenc$ from falling its price. /asicall$ rise in imports decreases the price of
currenc$ in foreign e'change markets. ,o government will slow down the imports and will tr$ to increase
its own products to complete the necessar$ requirement of the countr$.
