什么影响花费和储蓄
- 收入:更富的家庭储蓄更大的份额。
- 利率:高利率奖励储蓄并抑制借贷。
- 信心:乐观提高花费;恐惧提高储蓄。
Low-income households tend to spend a larger proportion of their income than high-income households. · 低收入家庭往往比高收入家庭花费更大比例的收入。
They have little left over to save. · 他们几乎没有剩余可用于储蓄。
Different households behave differently
- Low-income households spend almost all they earn (little left to save).

Worked example. When interest rates rise, mortgage 抵押贷款 repayments cost more, so households cut back spending and try to save — one way the central bank cools an economy.
不同的家庭行为不同
- 低收入家庭几乎花掉他们赚的所有(很少剩下储蓄)。
- 高收入家庭储蓄更大的比例。
例题。 当利率上升时,抵押贷款还款成本更高,所以家庭削减花费并试图储蓄——中央银行给一个经济降温的一种方式。
