This is an economic measurement of the total demand for all finished goods and services produced in an economy; it is expressed as the total amount of money exchanged for those goods and services at a specific price level and point in time.
What is aggregate demand
This measures the percentage of income that is spent rather than saved. This may be calculated by a single individual who wants to know where the money is going or by an economist who wants to track the spending and saving habits of an entire nation.

this is the value of one nation's currency versus the currency of another nation or economic zone

what is net domestic product
This is the total money spent on final goods and services by individuals and households for personal use and enjoyment in an economy.
what is consumer spending
This is an economic formula that represents the functional relationship between total consumption and gross national income. It was introduced by British economist John Maynard Keynes, who argued the function could be used to track and predict total aggregate consumption expenditures.
What is the consumption function
this is a quantitative measure of the rate at which the average price level of a basket of selected goods and services in an economy increases over some period of time. It is the rise in the general level of prices where a unit of currency effectively buys less than it did in prior periods

This rate refers to the interest rate before taking inflation into account
