IMPLEMENTATION LAG: In the context of economic policies, the time between the realization that a shock to the economy has occurred and corrective government action responding to the shock. This is one of several policy lags that limit the effectiveness of stabilization policies designed to correct business-cycle fluctuations. This is also one of two inside lags. The other is a recognition lag. The implementation lag, which is often divided into decision and action lags, emerges due to the time it takes for government leaders to debate, discuss, and decide on the appropriate policy then get the appropriate government agencies to launch the policy. The implementation lag is usually shorter for monetary policy than fiscal policy.

The payment flow goes in the opposite direction of the physical flow. A physical commodity goes one direction through markets and payment goes the other.- The household sector buys production from the business sector (counter-clockwise flow) in exchange for payment (clockwise flow) through product markets.
- The business sector buys resources from the household sector (counter-clockwise flow) in exchange for payment (clockwise flow) through factor markets.
- Revenue received by the business sector for selling goods is used to pay the factors of production.
- Factor payments become income used by household sector to buy production from the business sector.
- The circular flow makes about six cycles around the economy each year.

Also termed market period, the very short run exists if the period is so short that no additional production is possible. In other words, the good has been produced, all that remains is to sell it. This is one of four production time periods used in the study of microeconomics. The other three are short run, long run, and very long run.
