  2. Diminishing returns - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diminishing_returns

    Under diminishing returns, output remains positive, but productivity and efficiency decrease. The modern understanding of the law adds the dimension of holding other outputs equal, since a given process is understood to be able to produce co-products. [4] An example would be a factory increasing its saleable product, but also increasing its CO ...

  3. Amdahl's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amdahl's_law

    Amdahl's law does represent the law of diminishing returns if one is considering what sort of return one gets by adding more processors to a machine, if one is running a fixed-size computation that will use all available processors to their capacity. Each new processor added to the system will add less usable power than the previous one.

  4. Submodular set function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Submodular_set_function

    In mathematics, a submodular set function (also known as a submodular function) is a set function that, informally, describes the relationship between a set of inputs and an output, where adding more of one input has a decreasing additional benefit (diminishing returns). The natural diminishing returns property which makes them suitable for ...

  5. Ricardian economics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ricardian_economics

    The law of diminishing returns states that if you add more units to one of the factors of production and keep the rest constant, the quantity or output created by the extra units will eventually get smaller to a point where overall output will not rise ("diminishing returns"). For example, consider a simple farm that has two inputs: labor and land.

  6. Talk:Diminishing returns - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Diminishing_returns

    The best example of the law of diminishing marginal returns is this page itself. The farm worker example should be clarified by stating that the "law" (which is quite a misnomer) applies only to the number of workers, i.e. increasing the number of workers will not necessarily increase the returns by the same proportion.

  7. Marginal return - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marginal_return

    Marginal Return is the rate of return for a marginal increase in investment; roughly, this is the additional output resulting from a one-unit increase in the use of a variable input, while other inputs are constant.

    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.}} | Source = {{Own based|Diminishing Returns Graph.png|by=Happyavocado}} | Date = {{Orig...
