Answer:

Investment equals savings.

Step-by-step explanation:

Marginal product of capital is the real rental price of the capital. It is equal to the real interest rate if the law of diminishing returns is prevailing in the economic system. In such case the investments will be equal to savings. If the real interest rate is increased by the marginal product of capital then depreciation rate and risk premium accounts for the difference.
