Edvaya · Accepted Answer

The correct answer is Statement 1 is false and Statement 2 is true.. Statement 1 is false because Average Propensity to Save (APS = S/Y) can never be greater than one. Since saving is a part of income, savings can never exceed total income. Statement 2 is true as the break-even point in economics is strictly defined as the point where Income = Consumption (and Savings = 0).
