  2. Law of increasing costs - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_increasing_costs

    The law also applies to switching production in a maxed out economy. Essentially, the economy is still producing more, so the law still applies. The only difference is that resources are being taken from one area and applied to another, instead of simply producing more of the same (as assumed in the first paragraph) [1] Business and economics ...

  3. Production–possibility frontier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Production–possibility...

    In microeconomics, a production–possibility frontier (PPF), production possibility curve (PPC), or production possibility boundary (PPB) is a graphical representation showing all the possible options of output for two that can be produced using all factors of production, where the given resources are fully and efficiently utilized per unit time.

  4. Economics of car use - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economics_of_car_use

    A study attempted to quantify the costs of cars (i.e. of car-use and related decisions and activity such as production and transport/infrastructure policy) in conventional currency, finding that the total lifetime cost of cars in Germany is between 0.6 and 1.0 million euros with the share of this cost born by society being between 41% (€4674 ...

  5. Diminishing returns - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diminishing_returns

    A curve of output against input. The areas of increasing, diminishing and negative returns are identified at points along the curve. There is also a point of maximum yield which is the point on the curve where producing another unit of output becomes inefficient and unproductive.

  6. Derived demand - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Derived_demand

    The inverse of the relationship, y = f (x), is the graphical representation of Marshall’s derived demand curve for the selected factor of production. [2] Its equilibrium price and quantity are determined by the intersection of this demand curve with the supply curve of the factor of production.

  7. Induced demand - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induced_demand

    When the supply curve shifts from S1 to S2, the equilibrium price decreases from P1 to P2, and an increase in quantity demanded from Q1 to Q2 is induced.. In economics, induced demand – related to latent demand and generated demand [1] – is the phenomenon whereby an increase in supply results in a decline in price and an increase in consumption.

  8. Contributing to the rising cost of repairing a car are more expensive auto parts and wage increases for car mechanics due to labor shortages, Zawacki told CNN. More severe and frequent car accidents

  9. Marginal product of labor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marginal_product_of_labor

    Graphically, the AP L curve can be derived from the total product curve by drawing secants from the origin that intersect (cut) the total product curve. The slope of the secant line equals the average product of labor, where the slope = dQ/dL. [6] The slope of the curve at each intersection marks a point on the average product curve.
