This is a stock-flow consistent model, namely a modified version of the simplest (PC) model with money and boonds.

(I had to change the equation for consumption demand. The disposable income now enters with a time lag of one period. Otherwise the model would be recursive and would not work in Insight Maker. Thanks to Gene for support.)designed by Dirk Ehnts (blog)
PC model
This is a stock-flow consistent model, namely the simplest (SIM) model with government money. I have added imports and exports and an exchange rate which has an influence on consumption demand via real disposable income and real foreign demand.

Gene Bellinger's CST course requires several causation models to be developed. This is my first sheet of such models.
