Time lag

Japanese: タイム・ラグ(英語表記)time lag
Time lag
In economics, a time lag means that when an economic phenomenon occurs, the reaction to it does not occur immediately, but occurs after a certain amount of time has passed. Important examples of time lags include (1) the consumption lag emphasized by DH Robertson (when income increases, households do not increase consumption immediately, but increase it after a certain amount of time has passed), (2) the production lag emphasized by E. Lundberg and LA Metzler (when sales increase, companies respond by reducing inventory for the time being, and increase production after some time has passed), and (3) the lag between investment plans and the execution of the investment (even if an investment plan is made and machinery is ordered, the machinery is not delivered immediately, so there is a lag between the investment plan and its realization).
