Investment, again:
All spending by
firms for newly built
equipment and
durable structures
All changes in
business inventories
All spending by
households for newly
constructed
residential housing
The record shows that
I is volatile--showing
substantial variation
from month to month
or year to year.
 Investment is assumed to
be an autonomous variable
in our model. That is, I is
presumed to be determined
independent of current real
output and income. More
precisely, we can say that:
I function
shifts right
due to
increase in
, ceteris

r

I = f(r, ), where
• r is the interest rate; and
•  is expected profits from
spending for tangible, capital
goods

For a closed economy without a public sector:
YC+I
[1]
C =Ca + cYD
[2]
I = Ia
[3]
Since there is no public sector nor retained earnings,
we can say: Y = YD. Therefore, [2] can be rewritten as:
C = Ca + cY
[4]
Substitute [4] and [3] into [1]:
Y = Ca + cY + Ia
[5]
AE In equilibrium,
AE = Y and
unplanned inventory
investment is zero
AE = Y
AE = Ca + Ia + cY
C =Ca + cY
There is no

Properties of Equilibrium in the Keynesian System



Planned spending (AE) is equal to real output (Y) so
that firms on average experience zero unplanned
inventory accumulation or de-accumulation.
Firms on average have no reason to expand or contract
their output level; nor do they have any incentive to offer
more or less employment.
Equilibrium GDP might be equal to potential or full
employment GDP (the “special” or “Classical” case], but
there is no guarantee (as is true for the Classical
model). The more likely outcome (or what Keynes
referred to as the “general case” ) is “underemployment
equilibrium.”
