问题如下:
Which of the following is most likely to increase after an increase in aggregate real personal income?
选项:
A.Equity prices B.Building permits for new private housing units C.The ratio of consumer installment debt to income解释:
C is correct. Aggregate real personal income is a coincident indicator of the business cycle, and the ratio of consumer installment debt to income is a lagging indicator. Increases in the ratio of consumer installment debt follow increases in average aggregate income during the typical business cycle.
个人实际收入总额是景气周期的同步指标,而消费者分期付款债务与收入的比率则是滞后性指标。在典型的商业周期中,消费者分期付款债务比率的增加伴随着平均总收入的增加。
我理解Debt/Income是滞后指标,但是随着经济变好,Income增加,Debt/Income不是会下降吗,为什么Increase?
