If a machine becomes old and less useful, what is this related to?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Depreciation
Depreciation is the decline in the value or productive usefulness of a fixed capital asset because of use, age, normal wear, or obsolescence. An old machine becoming less useful is therefore a direct example. Gross investment refers to spending on new capital, while net exports and national debt are different macroeconomic concepts.
