  2. Profit maximization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Profit_maximization

    The maximization of producer surplus can in some cases reduce consumer surplus. [15] Some forms of producer profit maximization are considered anti-competitive practices and are regulated by competition law. [15] Maximization of short-term producer profit can reduce long-term producer profit, which can be exploited by predatory pricing such as ...

  3. Corner solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corner_solution

    This is a corner solution as the highest possible IC (IC 2) intersects the budget line at one of the intercepts (x-intercept). [1] In mathematics and economics, a corner solution is a special solution to an agent's maximization problem in which the quantity of one of the arguments in the maximized function is zero. In non-technical terms, a ...

  4. Lagrange multiplier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lagrange_multiplier

    For example, in economics the optimal profit to a player is calculated subject to a constrained space of actions, where a Lagrange multiplier is the change in the optimal value of the objective function (profit) due to the relaxation of a given constraint (e.g. through a change in income); in such a context is the marginal cost of the ...

  5. List of optimization software - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_optimization_software

    For example, the inputs could be design parameters for a motor, the output could be the power consumption. For another optimization, the inputs could be business choices and the output could be the profit obtained. An optimization problem, (in this case a minimization problem), can be represented in the following way:

  6. Financial management - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Financial_management

    Profit maximization happens when marginal cost is equal to marginal revenue. This is the main objective of financial management. Maintaining proper cash flow is a short run objective of financial management. It is necessary for operations to pay the day-to-day expenses e.g. raw material, electricity bills, wages, rent etc.

  7. Assignment problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assignment_problem

    Another naive solution is to greedily assign the pair with the smallest cost first, and remove the vertices; then, among the remaining vertices, assign the pair with the smallest cost; and so on. This algorithm may yield a non-optimal solution. For example, suppose there are two tasks and two agents with costs as follows:

  8. Lexicographic max-min optimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lexicographic_max-min...

    In general, a lexmaxmin optimization problem may have more than one optimal solution. If and are two optimal solutions, then their ordered value vector must be the same, that is, [] = [] for all [], [5]: Thm.2 that is, the smallest value is the same, the second-smallest value is the same, and so on.

  9. Monopolistic competition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monopolistic_competition

    In particular, unemployment of workers leads to poverty and misery in the society. If idle capacity is fully used, the problem of unemployment can be solved to some extent. Cross transport: Under monopolistic competition expenditure is incurred on cross transportation. If the goods are sold locally, wasteful expenditure on cross transport could ...
