The actual economy is more complicated than the one illustrated in the previous circular-flow diagram of a simple economy - false

The circular flow of income represents the flow of economic exchanges between economic agents in the economy. If a household provides the labor factor of production, it is paid and uses the same money to purchase from the same firms that produce goods and services. This is a cycle and actually doesn't get more complex than this in real life, only involves alot more firms or economic agents.
