A characterization of induced central extensions which gives an explicit relationship between induced central extensions and n-stem extensions is obtained. Using the characterization, necessary and sufficient conditions for a central extension of an abelian group by a nilpotent group of class n to be a Baer sum of an induced central extension and an extension of class n are obtained.
