Question

Investment includes

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Investment refers to the purchase of goods that are not consumed today, but are used in the production of other goods and services in the future. An increase in business inventories represents investment because it is the purchase of goods that are intended to be sold or used in the production of future goods and services. The other options, including an increase in stock volumes, the purchase of medical supplies by the National Guard, and an increase in government spending, do not represent investment in the economic sense.
