Lee Ines Nicole
Small 'y' = production plan Big 'Y' = production possibilities set
Lee Ines Nicole
V(y) = input requirement set V(y) measures inputs as positive, not negative, numbers
Lee Ines Nicole
Convexity of input requirements set
Lee Ines Nicole
SOCs for profit max'zn
Lee Ines Nicole
CD production fct
Lee Ines Nicole
HOD 0 Property
Lee Ines Nicole
HOD 0 is necessary condition for profit maxim'zn.
Lee Ines Nicole
?? How to deduce from this that Hessian Matrix is strictly ND?
Lee Ines Nicole
Properties of the substitution matrix
Lee Ines Nicole
WAPM
Lee Ines Nicole
Implications of WAPM
Lee Ines Nicole
Recoverability: constructing a technology consistent with the observed choices. If a set of data satisfies WAPM, we can always find a technology for which the observed choices are profit-maximizing.
Lee Ines Nicole
Properties of the Profit Function

Conditional Factor Demand
Lee Ines Nicole
Proof that the conditional factor demand curve slopes downwards.
Lee Ines Nicole
Principle of duality: any concept defined in terms of the properties of the production function has a "dual" definition in terms of the properties of the cost function and vice versa.
