 An Empirical Analysis of the Structure of Production
In the most stylized case, the interest rate is proportional to the slope of the hypotenuse of the Hayekian triangle.
Although the Hayekian triangle is a general model of intertemporal resource allocation, it is generally interpreted as a model of how interest rates determine allocation of investment versus consumption spending, and how the structure of production is manifested in the capital stock.
The value of inputs is determined by the price an entrepreneur expects to command for output at the end of the stage of production, whether for sale to a consumer or to a producer who uses output from an earlier stage as input in a later stage.
