  2. Delta one - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delta_one

    A delta one product is a derivative with a linear, symmetric payoff profile. That is, a derivative that is not an option or a product with embedded options. Examples of delta one products are Exchange-traded funds, equity swaps, custom baskets, linear certificates, futures, forwards, exchange-traded notes, trackers, and Forward rate agreements ...

  3. Robinson Crusoe economy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robinson_Crusoe_economy

    It assumes an economy with one consumer, one producer and two goods. The title " Robinson Crusoe " is a reference to the 1719 novel of the same name authored by Daniel Defoe . As a thought experiment in economics, many international trade economists have found this simplified and idealized version of the story important due to its ability to ...

  4. Convexity (finance) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convexity_(finance)

    This value is isolated via a straddle – purchasing an at-the-money straddle (whose value increases if the price of the underlying increases or decreases) has (initially) no delta: one is simply purchasing convexity (optionality), without taking a position on the underlying asset – one benefits from the degree of movement, not the direction.

  5. Supply and demand - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supply_and_demand

    If the demand decreases, then the opposite happens: a shift of the curve to the left. If the demand starts at D 2, and decreases to D 1, the equilibrium price will decrease, and the equilibrium quantity will also decrease. The quantity supplied at each price is the same as before the demand shift, reflecting the fact that the supply curve has ...

  6. Excess demand function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Excess_demand_function

    In microeconomics, excess demand, also known as shortage, is a phenomenon where the demand for goods and services exceeds that which the firms can produce.. In microeconomics, an excess demand function is a function expressing excess demand for a product—the excess of quantity demanded over quantity supplied—in terms of the product's price and possibly other determinants. [1]

  7. Arrow–Debreu model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arrow–Debreu_model

    In mathematical economics, the Arrow–Debreu model is a theoretical general equilibrium model. It posits that under certain economic assumptions (convex preferences, perfect competition, and demand independence), there must be a set of prices such that aggregate supplies will equal aggregate demands for every commodity in the economy.

  8. Kelvin Lancaster - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kelvin_Lancaster

    In a 1966 paper, Lancaster developed what he called a "new theory of consumer demand", in which the then standard microeconomic demand theory was modified by stipulating that what consumers are seeking to acquire is not goods themselves (e.g. cars or train journeys) but the characteristics they contain (e.g. transport from A to B, display of ...

  9. Marshallian demand function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marshallian_demand_function

    Marshall's theory exploits that demand curve represents individual's diminishing marginal values of the good. The theory insists that the consumer's purchasing decision is dependent on the gainable utility of a goods or services compared to the price since the additional utility that the consumer gain must be at least as great as the price.
