Economic Consequences
If the rate of consumption, investment, government spending and/or exports increases, there will be an overall increase in gross domestic product. This will have a resulting effect on aggregate demand, causing it to rise and, thus resulting in the aggregate demand curve shifting outwards. Alternatively, if there was a decrease in the mentioned factors, the result will be a fall in aggregate demand, thus causing and inward shift in the aggregate demand curve.
The Keynesian Formula can be used to track changes in aggregate demand, gross domestic product and what consequence that will have on the price level (inflation). This formula is a tool for analysing macroeconomic performance.

Famous quotes containing the words economic and/or consequences:
“... business training in early life should not be regarded solely as insurance against destitution in the case of an emergency. For from business experience women can gain, too, knowledge of the world and of human beings, which should be of immeasurable value to their marriage careers. Self-discipline, co-operation, adaptability, efficiency, economic management,—if she learns these in her business life she is liable for many less heartbreaks and disappointments in her married life.”
—Hortense Odlum (1892–?)
“The consequences of our actions grab us by the scruff of our necks, quite indifferent to our claim that we have “gotten better” in the meantime.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
