Book excerpt: Excerpt from Enterprise and the Productive Process: A Theory of Economic Productivity Presented From the Point of View of the Entrepreneur and Based Upon Definitions, Secured Through Deduction (and Presumably, Therefore, Precise and Final) Of the Scope and Fundamental Terms of the Science of Economics The present age is markedly one of social and industrial evolution, differing from previous eras not only in the rapidity with which changes are effected and in their radical character and wide influences, but also in the fact that social and economic development is more and more consciously directed. In the ancient civilisations which have arisen, culminated, and declined, there was practically no attempt at intelligent guidance. Proximate and immediate benefits to individuals, classes, and communities were alone considered. And this is equally true of feudalism and the Middle Ages - the first stages of our present civilisation. Such progress as was slowly obtained was wholly due to the survival of the unconscious fittest. There was little or no intelligent and well directed effort to fit society in general to survive and progress.

Download or read book The Marginal Productivity Theory of Distribution written by John Pullen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2009-06-26 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Marginal Productivity Theory of Distribution (MPTD) claims that in a free-market economy the demand for a factor of production will depend upon its marginal product – where "marginal product" is defined as the change in total product that is caused by, or that follows, the addition or subtraction of the marginal unit of the factor used in the production process, with all other inputs held constant. From its inception in the early nineteenth century the MPTD has been claimed by some economists to be a solution to the ethical problem of distributive justice, i.e. to be a means of determining fairness in wages, profits, interest and rent. Other economists have rejected this ethical claim, but have seen the MPTD as a valid demand-side criterion in the determination of equilibrium and efficiency. This book argues that the MPTD is valid, neither as a normative theory of social justice, nor as a positive law of economics. It suggests that economics is yet to develop a satisfactory theory of distribution that is scientific in the quantitative or mathematical sense. Through a survey of the origin and subsequent evolution of the MPTD in the writings of over 50 contributors over 150 years, John Pullen presents a critical history of the concept. The book begins by examining the conceptual tools that have been deployed to facilitate this analysis of past contributions to the MPTD and then looks at various economists and their contribution to the debate including its supporters such as Wicksteed, Marshall, Wicksell and Stigler, and its critics such as Pareto, Hobson, Edgeworth, Adriance and Cassel.

Download or read book Theory of Production and Cost written by Günter Fandel and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 415 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Production theory and the theory of cost both belong to the central areas of business administration, for all considerations concerning the economic organization of industrial manufacturing processes start from these. Two developments in the past 30 years have had a considerable influence on the structure and the concentration on points of emphasis in this book. I am referring to findings from KOOPMANS' activity analysis and to the formulation by GUTENBERG of a production function concept that focuses on industrial production processes. Activity analysis has made it possible to develop, from a uniform approach, different types of production functions which describe the concrete principles of production in the productive sector of a business enterprise; this has created a common basis for all production concepts in business administration. The Gutenberg Production Function with its different kinds of adjustment to a changing output has opened up a flexibility to theoretical and practical considerations that gave rise to a large number of additional studies in this area. Considerations in cost theory were in particular need of considerable extensions in the direction of cost minimal combined adjustment processes. By means of the organization of its contents, this book will take both approaches into due account. In that way, it is vastly different from other books dealing with the same subject. As a matter of course, traditional analytical methods and ways of thinking also constitute a large part of the book.

Download or read book Production Economics written by Svend Rasmussen and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-08-04 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers the basic theory of how, what and when firms should produce to maximise profits. Based on the neoclassical theory of the firm presented in most general microeconomic textbooks, it extends the general treatment and focuses on the application of the theory to specific problems that the firm faces when making production decisions to maximise profits. Increasing level of government regulation and the use of specialised and often very expensive equipment in modern production motivates the following focus areas: 1) How to optimise production under restrictions., 2) Treatment of fixed inputs and the process of input fixation, 3) Optimisation of production over time, 4) Linear and Mixed Integer Programming as tools for optimisation in practice. This updated second edition includes a more comprehensive introduction to the theory of decision making under risk and uncertainty as well as a new chapter on how to use linear programming to generate the supply function of the firm.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is Economic Production The process of production involves bringing together a number of different inputs, which can be either material or immaterial, in order to create output. In a perfect world, this output will be some kind of valuable good or service that contributes in some way to the overall utility of individual people. The theory of economics that is concerned with production is referred to as production theory, and it is closely connected to the theory of economics that is concerned with consumption.

This book was released on 2019-08-07 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book to examine the “nuts and bolts” of production processes. It proposes a truly consilient approach to modeling production processes – one that goes beyond the vague principles found in standard economics – and provides details that are consistent with the applied mechanics and engineering literature. Providing a credible analysis of some of the most pressing questions of our era, such as the productivity slowdown and the information paradox, and bridging the gap between engineering, applied physics, economics, and management science, this book is a fascinating read for anyone interested in industry, the modern economy, and how physical factors constrain productivity growth.

Download or read book Productive Efficiency written by Fouad Sabry and published by One Billion Knowledgeable. This book was released on 2024-02-04 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is Productive Efficiency According to the theory of microeconomics, productive efficiency refers to a situation in which the economy or an economic system that is operating within the restrictions of the current industrial technology is unable to expand production of one good without sacrificing production of another good. In layman's words, the idea is depicted on a production possibility frontier (PPF), which is a curve in which every point on the curve represents a point of productive efficiency. There is a possibility that an equilibrium could be productively efficient without also being allocatively efficient. This means that it could lead to a distribution of products that does not maximize the welfare of the community.

Download or read book Productivity written by Bert M. Balk and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-07-22 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book develops the theory of productivity measurement using the empirical index number approach. The theory uses multiplicative indices and additive indicators as measurement tools, instead of relying on the usual neo-classical assumptions, such as the existence of a production function characterized by constant returns to scale, optimizing behavior of the economic agents, and perfect foresight. The theory can be applied to all the common levels of aggregation (micro, meso, and macro), and half of the book is devoted to accounting for the links existing between the various levels. Basic insights from National Accounts are thereby used. The final chapter is devoted to the decomposition of productivity change into the contributions of efficiency change, technological change, scale effects, and input or output mix effects. Applications on real-life data demonstrate the empirical feasibility of the theory. The book is directed to a variety of overlapping audiences: statisticians involved in measuring productivity change; economists interested in growth accounting; researchers relating macro-economic productivity change to its industrial sources; enterprise micro-data researchers; and business analysts interested in performance measurement.

Download or read book Theory of Production written by Heinz D. Kurz and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1997-02-28 with total page 596 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This compelling book contains a comprehensive analytical treatment of the theory of production in a long-period framework. Although the authors take a 'Classical' approach to their subject, the scope of investigation and methods employed should interest all economic theorists. Professors Kurz and Salvadori explore economic systems that are characterised by a particular kind of primary input in the production process, such as different kinds of labour and natural resources. These systems and the corresponding prices can be understood to reflect characteristic features of a capitalist market economy in an ideal way: they express the pure logic of the relationship between value and distribution in an economic system. Specific chapters deal with prices and income distribution, economic growth, joint production, fixed capital, scarce natural resources (both renewable and exhaustible), and heterogeneous labour. The historical origins of the concepts used are also discussed in considerable detail.
