• Consumption function graph

  The consumption function diagram shows the relation between consumption and income explaining the effects of income on APS and APC.
• Stages of life-cycle theory of consumption

  • School
  • Working
  • Retirement
• School stage

  Individuals with lower income levels are viewed as 'Full-Time Students'. Other factors on why individuals earn lower income during schooling years are: Lack skills, qualifications and time.
