In the chapter, we discussed how intertemporal substitution can amplify a boom by causing people to work more and by causing more people to work (while the reverse is true in a recession).
Capital is also subject to intertemporal substitution. For example, it’s possible to run a factory at close to capacity in one period, while putting off maintenance to a later period.
