INELASTIC: In general, if changes in variable A cause changes in variable B, then the relative change in B is less than the relative change in A.

You should compare inelastic with elastic.

Other notable aggregate expenditures determinants include interest rates, federal deficit, consumer confidence, and exchange rates.
