西部农村消费需求的边际倾向与收入弹性比较分析

An Analysis of Marginal Propensity to Consume and Elasticity of Income of Consumption Demand in the Rural Areas of the Western Regions of China

收入是拉动消费需求增加的非常重要的动力,但在我国,由于地域差异大,经济一直落后的西部农村地区,收入虽然也有所增加,但由于经济基础薄弱而使收入的增加对消费增加的作用不明显,消费的边际倾向和收入弹性相对东部地区的省份高,所以进一步增加西部农民的收入就很容易启动潜在消费,从而刺激全国的有效需求,使我国经济尽快走出低迷的状态。

Income is the most important factor in increasing consumption demand. Because of the regional differences, compared with the Eastern provinces, the income of the undeveloped rural areas of the Western China increases but has no obvious effect on consumption. As a result, the marginal propensity to consume and elasticity of income in the rural areas of the Western China are relatively greater than that of the Eastern Provinces. It becomes easier to increase farmers＇ income by promoting potential consumption and further stimulate effective demands all over the country and shake off the national economic depression of China.
