A market can be said to have allocative efficiency if the price of a product that the market is supplying is equal to the marginal value consumers place on it, and equals marginal cost. In other words, when every good or service is produced up to the point where one more unit provides a marginal benefit to consumers less than the marginal cost ...
Constrained Pareto efficiency is a weakening of Pareto optimality, accounting for the fact that a potential planner (e.g., the government) may not be able to improve upon a decentralized market outcome, even if that outcome is inefficient. This will occur if it is limited by the same informational or institutional constraints as are individual ...
Abdulkadiroğlu and Sönmez [12] investigate the relation between sd-efficiency and ex-post Pareto-efficiency (in the context of random assignment). They introduce a new notion of domination for sets of assignments, and show that a lottery is sd-efficient iff each subset of the support of the lottery is undominated.
Efficiency notions: Pareto-efficiency, graph Pareto-efficiency (where Pareto-domination considers only exchanges between neighbors on a fixed graph), and group-Pareto-efficiency. An allocation X as k-group-Pareto-efficient (GPE k ) if there is no other allocation Y that is at least as good (by arithmetic mean of utilities) for all groups of ...
Pareto efficiency is achieved when the marginal rate of transformation (slope of the frontier/opportunity cost of goods) is equal to all consumers' marginal rate of substitution. Similarly, not all Pareto efficient points on the frontier are Allocative efficient. Allocative efficient is only achieved when the economy produces at quantities that ...

In the single-price model, at the point of allocative efficiency price is equal to marginal cost. [3] [4] At this point the social surplus is maximized with no deadweight loss (the latter being the value society puts on that level of output produced minus the value of resources used to achieve that level). Allocative efficiency is the main tool ...
Being on the curve might still not fully satisfy allocative efficiency (also called Pareto efficiency) if it does not produce a mix of goods that consumers prefer over other points. Much applied economics in public policy is concerned with determining how the efficiency of an economy can be improved. Recognizing the reality of scarcity and then ...
