  2. Equation of exchange - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equation_of_exchange

    This equation is a rearrangement of the definition of velocity: :=. As such, without the introduction of any assumptions, it is a tautology . The quantity theory of money adds assumptions about the money supply, the price level, and the effect of interest rates on velocity to create a theory about the causes of inflation and the effects of ...

  3. Mincer earnings function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mincer_earnings_function

    The Mincer earnings function is a single-equation model that explains wage income as a function of schooling and experience. It is named after Jacob Mincer. [1] [2] Thomas Lemieux argues it is "one of the most widely used models in empirical economics". The equation has been examined on many datasets.

  4. Shephard's lemma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shephard's_lemma

    Shephard's lemma is a result in microeconomics having applications in the theory of the firm and in consumer choice. [1] The lemma states that if indifference curves of the expenditure or cost function are convex , then the cost-minimizing point of a given good ( i {\displaystyle i} ) with price p i {\displaystyle p_{i}} is unique.

  5. Quantity theory of money - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantity_theory_of_money

    The quantity equation itself as stated above is uncontroversial, as it amounts to an identity or, equivalently, simply a definition of velocity: From the equation, velocity can be defined residually as the ratio of nominal output to the stock of money: = /. Developing a theory out of the equation requires assumptions be made about the causal ...

  6. Mathematical economics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_economics

    Mathematical economics is the application of mathematical methods to represent theories and analyze problems in economics.Often, these applied methods are beyond simple geometry, and may include differential and integral calculus, difference and differential equations, matrix algebra, mathematical programming, or other computational methods.

  7. Linear utility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_utility

    The price vector depends on the initial allocation. E.g., if the initial allocation is equal, [(3,3);(3,3)], then both agents have the same budget in CE, so = =. This CE is essentially unique: the price vector may be multiplied by a constant factor, but the CE equilibrium will not change. B.

  8. Reduced form - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reduced_form

    In econometrics, the equations of a structural form model are estimated in their theoretically given form, while an alternative approach to estimation is to first solve the theoretical equations for the endogenous variables to obtain reduced form equations, and then to estimate the reduced form equations. Let Y be the vector of the variables to ...

  9. Income elasticity of demand - Wikipedia

    Restaurant meals 1.40 [citation needed] Tobacco 0.42 [8] Water demand 0.15 [9] Income elasticities of demand for gasoline and diesel have been studied extensively, however, elasticities vary widely between studies. Estimates for income elasticities of demand for gasoline in developed economies range from 0.66 to 1.26. [10]
