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

Learning curve effect explains relationship between experience and productivity. According to learning curve effect‚ if time consulting‚ completed transactions do again‚ spending time that is required for transaction will shrink and productivity of work will increase.
