Thanks to a large amount of copper resources, progressive legislation and a healthy investment environment, Chile has become the copper mining capital of the world, producing over 1 / 3 of the global copper output.

This is contrasted with the concept of a centrally planned, or command economy, where most of the economy is planned by a central government authority, and organized along a top-down administration where decisions regarding investment, production output requirements are decided upon by planners from the top, or near the top, of the chain of command.

Such aggregates include national income and output, the unemployment rate, and price inflation and subaggregates like total consumption and investment spending and their components.

Macroeconomists develop models that explain the relationship between such factors as national income, output, consumption, unemployment, inflation, savings, investment, international trade and international finance.

Several regression studies with David Meiselman during the 1960s suggested the primacy of the money supply over investment and government spending in determining consumption and output.

Therefore, in industries with large initial investment requirements, average total cost declines as output increases over a much larger range of output levels.

The more market-oriented approach reduced inefficiencies and stimulated private investment, particularly by farmers, that led to increased productivity and output.

By 1998, however, output of copper had fallen to a low of 228, 000 tonnes, continuing a 30-year decline in output due to lack of investment, and until recently, low copper prices and uncertainty over privatization.

Therefore, a temporary surge of infrastructure investment yields an expansion of output, and vice versa that dwindling infrastructure, like in the 1970s, hamper longer-term movement in productivity.

Thus, human capital is a means of production, into which additional investment yields additional output.

The initials IS stand for " Investment and Saving equilibrium " but since 1937 have been used to represent the locus of all equilibria where total spending ( consumer spending + planned private investment + government purchases + net exports ) equals an economy's total output ( equivalent to real income, Y, or GDP ).

By the above hypothesis, the graph indicates one of the major criticisms of deficit spending as a way to stimulate the economy: rising interest rates lead to crowding out – i. e., discouragement – of private fixed investment, which in turn may hurt long-term growth of the supply side ( potential output ).

Further, if government deficits are spent on productive public investment ( e. g., infrastructure or public health ) that directly and eventually raises potential output, although not necessarily as much as the lost private investment might have.

In measures of national income and output, " gross investment " ( represented by the variable < var style =" font-family: serif ; font-size: 1. 1em ;"> I </ var >) is also a component of gross domestic product (< var > GDP </ var >), given in the formula < var > GDP </ var >

He continues that " a higher growth rate in output, other things remaining the same, would enable the industry to attain a higher rate of technological progress ( since more investment would be made ) and create a situation in which the constituent firms could take greater advantage of scale economies ;" it is believed that ISI will allow this ( Goldar 148 ).
