ECLA: The Economic Commission for Latin America (ECLA) -the Spanish acronym is CEPAL- was established in 1948. ECLAC, which is headquartered in Santiago, Chile, is one of the five regional commissions of the United Nations. It was founded for the purposes of contributing to the economic development of Latin America, coordinating actions directed towards this end, and reinforcing economic relationships among the countries and with the other nations of the world. The promotion of the region's social development was later included among its primary objectives. The 33 countries of Latin America and the Caribbean are member States of ECLAC, together with several North American and European nations that have historical, economic and cultural ties with the region.

- That a multiplier captures the magnified relationship between deposit creation and extra bank reserves.
- That the multiplier can be expressed with an equation: D = mR.
- That the key to the deposit multiplier is required reserves and that the deposit multiplier is the inverse of the reserve ratio.
- Other factors that influence the total amount of money created:
- Banks keep excess reserves.
- Money leaks out checkable deposits into savings deposits.
- Customers keep some deposit-creating loans in cash.
- That the Federal Reserve uses a complex money multiplier in trying to control the amount of money circulating in the economy.

INTERMEDIATE GOODS Goods (and services) that are used as inputs or components in the production of other goods. Intermediate goods are combined into the production of finished products, or what are termed final goods. Unlike final goods, intermediate goods will be further processed before sold as final goods. Because gross domestic product seeks to measure the market value of final goods, and because the value of intermediate goods are included in the value of final goods, market transactions that capture the value of intermediate goods are not included separately in gross domestic product. To do so creates the problem of double counting.
