                                   The full employment output OY  is same as 'aggregate supply'. Since aggregate supply is already

                                   equals supply. The price level at which the product market is in equilibrium is OP. (Figure 3.19).

                                   The capital market brings equality between saving (leakages) and investment (injections) through
                                   adjustments in the real ROI.  The capital  market ensures  that the product market is in full
                                   employment equilibrium. (Figure 3.20)
