Answer

The answer is disposable income.

Explanation
Option 1: Saving

The consumption schedule does not directly show the relationship between household consumption and saving. Instead, saving is typically derived from the difference between disposable income and consumption.

Option 2: Investment

The consumption schedule is not primarily concerned with investment. Investment is more related to business expenditures on capital goods rather than household consumption.

Option 3: Disposable income

The consumption schedule illustrates how household consumption varies with changes in disposable income. As disposable income increases, household consumption typically increases as well, reflecting the direct relationship between these two variables.

Option 4: The marginal propensity to consume

While the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) is related to the consumption schedule, it is a measure of the change in consumption resulting from a change in disposable income, rather than the overall relationship between the two. The consumption schedule itself shows the broader relationship between total consumption and total disposable income.
