The Martin family has a disposable income of $90,000 annually. Currently, the Martin family spends 80% of new disposable income on consumption. Assume that their marginal propensity to consume is 0.8 and that their autonomous consumption spending is equal to $10,000. What is the amount of the Martin family's annual consumer spending? 2$
