Calculate the multiplier when the MPS is .5, .25, .10. What is the relationship between MPS and the multiplier?

What will be an ideal response?


When MPS = .5, the multiplier is 2. When MPS = .25, the multiplier is 4. When MPS = .10, the multiplier is 10. The relationship between MPS and the multiplier is inverse. As the MPS decreases, so the multiplier increases [multiplier = 1/(1 ? MPS)].
