  2. Marginal revenue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marginal_revenue

    The marginal revenue curve is affected by the same factors as the demand curve – changes in income, changes in the prices of complements and substitutes, changes in populations, etc. [15] These factors can cause the MR curve to shift and rotate. [16] Marginal revenue curve differs under perfect competition and imperfect competition (monopoly ...

  3. Income–consumption curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Income–consumption_curve

    In figure 3, the income–consumption curve bends back on itself as with an increase income, the consumer demands more of X 2 and less of X 1. [3] The income–consumption curve in this case is negatively sloped and the income elasticity of demand will be negative. [4] Also the price effect for X 2 is positive, while it is negative for X 1. [3]

  4. Lindahl tax - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lindahl_tax

    In the Lindahl Model, Dt represents the aggregate marginal benefit curve, which is the sum of Da and Db---the marginal benefits for the two individuals in the economy. In a Lindahl equilibrium, the optimal quantity of the public good will be where the social marginal benefit intersects the marginal cost (point P).

  5. Profit maximization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Profit_maximization

    Marginal revenue equals zero when the total revenue curve has reached its maximum value. An example would be a scheduled airline flight. The marginal costs of flying one more passenger on the flight are negligible until all the seats are filled. The airline would maximize profit by filling all the seats.

  6. Utility maximization problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utility_maximization_problem

    The income effect occurs when the change in prices of goods cause a change in income. If the price of one good rises, then income is decreased (more costly than before to consume the same bundle), the same goes if the price of a good falls, income is increased (cheeper to consume the same bundle, they can therefore consume more of their desired ...

  7. Margin (economics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Margin_(economics)

    The marginal cost curve is the marginal cost of an additional unit at each given quantity. The law of diminishing returns states the marginal cost of an additional unit of production for an organisation or business increases as the quantity produced increases. [8] Consequently, the marginal cost curve is an increasing function for large ...

  8. Inverse demand function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_demand_function

    The marginal revenue function is the first derivative of the total revenue function or MR = 120 - Q. Note that in this linear example the MR function has the same y-intercept as the inverse demand function, the x-intercept of the MR function is one-half the value of the demand function, and the slope of the MR function is twice that of the ...

  9. Leontief utilities - Wikipedia

    For example: Suppose is the number of left shoes and the number of right shoes. A consumer can only use pairs of shoes. Hence, his utility is (,). In a cloud computing environment, there is a large server that runs many different tasks.
