SEVENTH RULE OF COMPLEXITY: The seventh of seven basic rules of the economy. It is the observation that the world is complex, that every action has direct and often intended consequences and indirect and probably unintended effects (that is, cause and effect). A few of the more noted illustrations of this seventh rule are the circular flow (especially the expenditure multiplier) and market failures (especially externalities).

SERVICES, CONSUMPTION Personal consumption expenditures on activities that provide direct satisfaction of wants and needs without the production of tangible goods. Common examples are information, entertainment, and education. This is one of three categories of personal consumption expenditures in the National Income and Product Accounts maintained by the Bureau of Economic Analysis. The other two are durable goods and nondurable goods. Services are about 60 percent of personal consumption expenditures and 40 percent of gross domestic product.
