This is a formulation of real interest. It states the series
of sectoral productive capacity conditions in terms of flows
‘and no longer in terms of stocks) by specifying a very definite
relation which must hold between each demand coefficient for
new investments and the corresponding demand coefficient for
consumption goods. It states that, as a condition to endow the
system with the equilibrium productive capacity, each sectoral
aet investment, in physical terms, must be equal to the cor-
cesponding sectoral final demand multiplied by the rate of
growth of population. This determines sectoral equilibrium net
investments in the whole economic system:
TI1.7) X, (t)=g a,,X,(t) 1=1, 2, .... (NA — I).
These conditions may, therefore, be called the capital ac-
cumulation conditions for keeping full employment over time.
[f we like, they may be expressed also in terms of ratios be-
‘ween quantities evaluated at current prices. After multiplying
both sides of """ * hy P. and dividing by PX, we obtain

which mean that, in equilibrium, each sectoral ratio of invest-
nent to production, evaluated at current prices, is equal to the
sercentage rate of population growth multiplied by the cor-
responding sectoral capital-output ratio.
When the capital accumulation conditions are kept satisfied,
‘he system — as time goes on — is being constantly endowed
with exactly those stocks of productive capacity which are ne-
cessary in order to provide full employment for all the workers.
This, however, does not yet necessarily imply full employment
and full utilization of productive capacity. In order that equi-
