Real domestic output
No unplanned changes in inventory
Savings equals planned investment
Savings is a leakage
Investment is an injection
Consumption and investment schedules
Investment
Planned investment
Investment schedule
Investment demand curve

Equilibrium GDP changes in response to changes in either the consumption schedule or the investment schedule.
Formula: Multiplier= 1 / MPS
