The Jones Family has an annual consumer spending of $82,000. This is calculated using this formula: C = A +MD where C is the consumer spending, A is the autonomous consumption spending, M is the marginal propensity to consume, and D is the disposable income. Thus, the calculation is C = $10,000 + (0.8)($90,000). Giving C a value of $82,000.
