Abstract

Consumer credit has become an area of major importance in the financial planning of most, if not all, families in the United States. In absolute amounts, total consumer credit extended had increased more than 11 times, from $5,665 million to $63,164 million, since the end of World War II to 1962; and total installment credit had increased more than 19 times. During the same period disposable personal income had grown only about 2½ times (15).
