KEYNESIAN CROSS: The standard diagram used in Keynesian economics to identify the equilibrium level of aggregate output (that is, gross domestic product), with aggregate expenditures measured on the vertical axis, and aggregate output measured on the horizontal axis. This diagram contains two key lines, the aggregate expenditure line and the 45-degree line. Intersection between these lines indicates equilibrium aggregate output. This intersection, or cross, is what gives rise to the name. See also | Keynesian economics | equilibrium | Keynesian equilibrium | aggregate output | gross domestic product | aggregate expenditures | vertical axis | horizontal axis | aggregate expenditure line | 45-degree line | saving-investment model | Marshallian cross |

SLOPE, INVESTMENT LINE The positive slope of the investment line is also termed the marginal propensity to invest (MPI). This slope is greater than zero but less than one, reflecting induced investment. The slope of the investment line affects the slope of the aggregate expenditures line and thus also affects the magnitude of the multiplier process.
