The economy as a circuit

AAU Business School

Kort beskrivelse af aktiviteten: The talk will discuss how the economy can be represented as a circuit with different sectors interacting together. Starting with a simple circuit using 3 agents (banks, firms, households) associated with 3 basic economic functions (finance, production, consumption) we will show how the economy is an interdependent system of actors. We will show how the multiplier emerges visually in the circuit and how it can be calculated. Depending on time, we will extend the circuit to incorporate the Government and the rest of the world.
