CAPITAL CONSUMPTION ADJUSTMENT: The official item in the National Income and Product Accounts maintained by the Bureau of Economic Analysis that measures the macroeconomy's capital depreciation during a given time period, usually one year. The capital consumption adjustment, which is also commonly termed the capital consumption allowance, both of which conveniently go by the abbreviation of CCA, is subtracted from gross domestic product (GDP) to calculate net domestic product (NDP). The CCA is also subtracted from gross private domestic investment to calculate net private domestic investment.

More Demand and Less Supply
|
|
|
Here we have demand increasing (higher income) and supply decreasing (number of sellers declines).- An increase in demand causes an increase in both price and quantity.
- A decrease supply causes price to increase and quantity to decrease.
- The combined effect is an obvious increase in price but a questionable change in quantity.
- At the new equilibrium the quantity is indeterminant.
- If demand shifts relatively more than supply, quantity is greater.
- If demand shifts relatively less than supply, quantity is less.
