  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 ...

    For the 80th acre, her marginal willingness to pay has decreased down to zero. Figure 2: Tom's marginal willingness to pay. Figure 2 shows Tom's marginal willingness to pay for a public park. Unlike Sarah, for the first acre of park he is willing to pay $40, and for the 40th acre of park he has a marginal willingness to pay of $20.

    It's essential to consider whether the Lindahl Pareto tax stands as an optimal equilibrium. A Pareto optimal allocation occurs for a public good when the sum of the marginal rates of substitution (MRS) equals the marginal rate of transformation (MRT). Thus, if this can be shown to hold in a Lindahl equilibrium, it can be conveniently said to be ...

  5. Optimal tax - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optimal_tax

    Second, the more income an individual makes, their marginal tax schedule could actually decrease because they are discouraged from working at their optimal production level. The solution is to, after individuals reach a certain income level, ensure that the marginal tax remains steady. Third, reaching an optimal tax level could mean flat taxes ...

  6. 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.

  7. Rate of exploitation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rate_of_exploitation

    Marx did not regard the rate of surplus value and the rate of exploitation as necessarily identical, insofar as there was a divergence between surplus value realised and surplus value produced.

  8. Marginal concepts - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marginal_concepts

    marginal product of capital; marginal rate of transformation, the rate at which one output or result must be sacrificed in order to increase another output or result; marginal revenue product; marginal propensity to save and consume; marginal tax rate; marginal efficiency of capital; Marginalism is the use of marginal concepts to explain ...

  9. Excess burden of taxation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Excess_burden_of_taxation

    The average cost of funds is the total cost of distortions divided by the total revenue collected by a government. In contrast, the marginal cost of funds (MCF) is the size of the distortion that accompanied the last unit of revenue raised (i.e. the rate of change of distortion with respect to revenue). In most cases, the MCF increases as the ...
