SLOPE, CONSUMPTION LINE: The positive slope of the consumption line is also termed the marginal propensity to consume (MPC). This slope is greater than zero but less than one, reflecting induced consumption and the Keynesian psychological law of consumer behavior that consumption increases by less than the increase in income. The slope of the consumption line provides the foundation for the slope of the aggregate expenditures line and thus also affects the magnitude of the multiplier process.

The near monies added to M2 to derive M3 include large denomination certificates of deposit, institutional money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements, and Eurodollars.

BLACK DISMALAPOD
[What's This?]

Today, you are likely to spend a great deal of time looking for a downtown retail store looking to buy either a black duffle bag with velcro closures or any book written by Isaac Asimov. Be on the lookout for strangers with large satchels of used undergarments.
