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 2, 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 2, 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 2, French, - principe%20d%27acc%C3%A9l%C3%A9ration

Teoría que expresa que el precio del dinero, como el de cualquier otro bien, se obtiene por la interacción entre la oferta y la demanda del mismo. La demanda de dinero se produce por su uso como medio de pago y de acumulación de riqueza. La gente desea tener una determinada cantidad de dinero en términos reales, por lo que todo crecimiento en la oferta monetaria se traducirá en un aumento del nivel general de precios. Para los defensores de esta teoría existe una relación entre el crecimiento de la masa monetaria en términos nominales y la inflación. 2, record 6, Spanish, - teor%C3%ADa%20cuantitativa%20del%20dinero
