(b) An increase in the propensity to save leads to an increase in total saving.

(c) Many people use credit or debit cards to make purchases. Because money is the medium of exchange, credit cards are part of the economy's measure of stock of money supply.

(d) In India, women tend to drop out of the labour force to indulge in unpaid care work. If women were to spend less time on unpaid care work, they would add billions to the country's GDP.
