Hey guys

I was going through some of the solutions for the h/w my teacher gave me, and in one of her answers she said that "the policy mix increases, K, L, N/R and productivity. Would anyone happen to know what these abbreviations stand for?

thanks in advance.

K = Quantity of physical capital
L = Quantity of labor
N = Quantity of natural resources

This is what we learnt in first year macro in uni so hopefully it helps.
