  3. Accelerator effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accelerator_effect

    The accelerator effect is shown in the simple accelerator model. This model assumes that the stock of capital goods (K) is proportional to the level of production (Y): K = k×Y. This implies that if k (the capital-output ratio) is constant, an increase in Y requires an increase in K. That is, net investment, I n equals: I n = k×ΔY
