The acceleration principle received its name from the accelerated effect of a change in production or income on levels of investment - equipment or inventory. Acceleration can work in both positive and negative directions. When output grows, acceleration in investment is positive; when output declines, acceleration is negative. Thus, net investment - additions to the capital stock - will occur only when production or income is growing. 5, record 1, English, - acceleration%20principle

The accelerator principle says that small changes in consumer spending can cause big percentage changes in investment. It played a role in many business-cycle theories and is still used today to explain some of the fluctuation in investment. 6, record 1, English, - acceleration%20principle

Le principe d'accélération décrit l'influence d'une variation de la demande en biens de consommation sur la production de biens d'investissement. Si l'on admet, à chaque instant, le plein emploi du capital K et l'équilibre de la demande et de la production, le principe d'accélération constate que toute variation de la demande (D) entraîne une variation de la production (P) et que celle-ci nécessite une variation du capital (K) (on considère des accroissements). 4, record 1, French, - principe%20d%27acc%C3%A9l%C3%A9ration
