The technological relationship between the change in capital stock and the change in the level of output is defined as .................... .

  • A.The Output Coefficient
  • B.The Multiplier Coefficient
  • C.Incremental Capital-Output Ratio
  • D.Investment Multiplier

Answer: C

It is the Incremental Capital-Output Ratio.

The ICOR is the additional capital needed to produce an additional unit of output, \(\text{ICOR} = \frac{\Delta K}{\Delta Y}\). It expresses a technological relationship between the change in the capital stock (investment) and the change in output, and it is central to the Harrod-Domar model, where the growth rate equals the saving rate divided by the capital-output ratio.

The multiplier relates a change in income to a change in spending, not capital to output, and 'output coefficient' is not the standard name for this ratio.
