14. CAUSES OF BUSINESS
CYCLES
• Internal Factors:
1. Consumption: When consumer spending increases, businesses will increase
production- causing them to hire more workers and purchase more materials
and capital goods. When consumer spending decreases, the opposite will occur.
2. Business investment: The purchasing of capital goods increases the number of
jobs in the economy because people have to make those goods. If investments
increases, the economy will grow, if investment decreases, the economy will
contract.
3. Government activity: The government can influence the business cycle
through fiscal policy (its tax and spend policies) and monetary policy (its
control of the money supply, largely through the federal reserve).

positive direction, but this is not always so.
2.Wars and political events: The impact of such events on the economy
are very fact specific- in other words, difficult to generalize about.
