"Ex ante" and "ex post" are terms used in economics to differentiate between planned or anticipated values (ex ante) and actual realized values (ex post). These concepts are often applied to saving and consumption.

1. Ex Ante Saving and Consumption: Ex Ante Saving refers to planned or intended saving before any changes in economic variables occur. It's what individuals or households plan to save based on their expectations and intentions. Ex Ante Consumption is the planned or intended level of consumption before any changes in economic variables. It's what individuals or households plan to consume based on their expectations.

2. Ex Post Saving and Consumption: Ex Post Saving refers to the actual saving that occurs after changes in economic variables have taken place. It reflects the realized saving after accounting for any differences between planned and actual saving. Ex post consumption is the actual level of consumption that takes place after changes in economic variables. It reflects the realized consumption after accounting for any differences between planned and actual consumption.
