NATIONAL INCOME AND PERSONAL INCOME: National income (NI) is the total income earned by the citizens of the national economy resulting from their ownership of resources used in the production during a given period of time, usually one year. Personal income (PI) is the total income received by the members of the domestic household sector, which may or may not be earned from productive activities during a given period of time. Personal income can be derived from national income by subtracting income earned but not received (IEBNR) and adding income received but not earned (IRBNE).

- Another large section of the elasticity continuum is comprise of relatively inelastic:
- Relatively inelastic is an elasticity alternative in which relatively large changes in one variable (price) cause relatively small changes in another variable (quantity).
- Once again, this works for both the price elasticity of demand and the price elasticity of supply, because the negative value of the price elasticity of demand is ignored.
- Relatively inelastic demand and supply are represented by relatively steep, but not perfectly vertical, demand and supply curves.

IMPACT LAG The time lag that occurs between the implementation of a government policy designed to correct an economic problem and the complete impact of the policy. The impact lag is based on the multiplier process and can last up to a year or two or even longer. This "outside lag" is one of four policy lags associated with monetary and fiscal policy. The other three "inside lags" are recognition lag, decision lag, and implementation lag. All four policy lags can reduce the effectiveness of business-cycle stabilization policies and can even destabilize the economy.
