TOTAL PRODUCT CURVE: A curve that graphically represents the relation between total production by a firm in the short run and the quantity of a variable input added to a fixed input. When constructing this curve‚ it is assumed that total product changes from changes in the quantity of a variable input (like labor)‚ while other inputs (like capital) are fixed. This is one of three key product curves used in the analysis of short-run production. The other two are marginal product curve and average product

Compensated Demand Curve Definition: the compensated demand curve is a demand curve that ignores the income effect of a price change‚ only taking into account the substitution effect. To do this‚ utility is held constant from the change in the price of the good. In this section‚ we will graphically derive the compensated demand curve from indifference curves and budget constraints by incorporating the substitution and income effects‚ and use the compensated demand curve to find the compensating

Examine the salient features of the Phillips`s Curves. How might elementary textbooks be criticised for writing ‘inflation’ on the vertical axis? Introduction Philips curve‚ named after A.W. Philips‚ has caused many fierce debates in the area of macroeconomics since the World War II. Based on the data of wages and employment in UK from 1861to 1957‚ Phillips concluded that there had been an inverse relationship between the percentage rate of unemployment and the percentage rate of change in

Housego Phillips‚ a New Zealand born world renowned economist turns 101 years old this month (born on 18th November 1914). The Phillip Curve was published by him in 1958 as a case for monetary neutrality shown in negative‚ which still holds good for research work in macroeconomics and review of monetary policies for relevant agencies across the world. The Phillip Curve formed the basis for explaining that money might just not be neutral as largely believed by economists. It is popularly yet implicitly

CHAPTER 6 PRODUCTION EXERCISES 4. A political campaign manager must decide whether to emphasize television advertisements or letters to potential voters in a reelection campaign. Describe the production function for campaign votes. How might information about this function (such as the shape of the isoquants) help the campaign manager to plan strategy? The output of concern to the campaign manager is the number of votes. The production function has two inputs‚ television advertising and

ESTIMATING THE RISK PREMIUM USING HISTORICAL DATA: A CASE OF THE NSE Introduction This study seeks to estimate the risk premium of a company using historical data. Analysts use historical data to estimate the risk premium of a company’s equity. This is because the historical data is readily available from the company’s financial statements and the securities exchanges for example the Nairobi Stock Exchange (NSE) in Kenya. Historical market data can be used to compute average returns and a measure

REVENUE IN PRINT MEDIA Print production is measured on its quality‚ timeliness and effectiveness‚ whether it’s a brochure or packaging or a magazine advertisement. But when something in the production process goes wrong‚ it can not only cause delays but also increase cost and impact quality. The challenge for print buyers is to manage print jobs efficiently through procurement and production while guaranteeing consistent quality and on-time in-budget completion. This requires specialized expertise
