    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_production_functions

    This is a list of production functions that have been used in the economics literature. Production functions are a key part of modelling national output and national income . For a much more extensive discussion of various types of production functions and their properties, their relationships and origin, see Chambers (1988) [ 1 ] and Sickles ...

  3. Production function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Production_function

    In economics, a production function gives the technological relation between quantities of physical inputs and quantities of output of goods. The production function is one of the key concepts of mainstream neoclassical theories, used to define marginal product and to distinguish allocative efficiency, a key focus of economics. One important ...

    Wire-grid Cobb–Douglas production surface with isoquants A two-input Cobb–Douglas production function with isoquants. In economics and econometrics, the Cobb–Douglas production function is a particular functional form of the production function, widely used to represent the technological relationship between the amounts of two or more inputs (particularly physical capital and labor) and ...

  5. Factors of production - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factors_of_production

    In economics, factors of production, resources, or inputs are what is used in the production process to produce output—that is, goods and services. The utilized amounts of the various inputs determine the quantity of output according to the relationship called the production function .

  8. Constant elasticity of substitution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constant_elasticity_of...

    Constant elasticity of substitution (CES) is a common specification of many production functions and utility functions in neoclassical economics.CES holds that the ability to substitute one input factor with another (for example labour with capital) to maintain the same level of production stays constant over different production levels.

  9. Production set - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Production_set

    In economics the production set is a construct representing the possible inputs and outputs to a production process. A production vector represents a process as a vector containing an entry for every commodity in the economy. Outputs are represented by positive entries giving the quantities produced and inputs by negative entries giving the ...
