Extended data:
In theoretical economics, investment refers to the purchase (and thus production) of capital goods-goods that will not be consumed but will be used for future production. Examples include building railways, or factories, cleaning the land, or sending yourself to college. Strictly speaking, investment is also a part of gross domestic product (GDP) in the formula of GDP=C+I+G+NX. In that respect, the function of investment is divided into non-residential investment (such as factories, machinery, etc.). ) and residential investment (new house).
