Answer: c. $300

Explanation:

Private Saving is income less taxes and consumption so is calculated by the formula;

= Y - C - T

= Income - Consumption - Taxes

Find Consumption

Y - C - G = I

Income - Consumption - Government spending = Investment

1,000 - C - 200 = 250

C = 1,000 - 200 - 250

C = $550

Private Saving is therefore;

= 1,000 - 550 - 150

= $300
