  2. Monopolistic competition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monopolistic_competition

    A short-run monopolistic competition equilibrium graph has the same properties of a monopoly equilibrium graph. Long-run equilibrium of the firm under monopolistic competition. The company still produces where marginal cost and marginal revenue are equal; however, the demand curve (MR and AR) has shifted as other companies entered the market ...

  3. 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 ...

  4. Robinson Crusoe economy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robinson_Crusoe_economy

    Figure 5: Equilibrium in both production and consumption in the Robinson Crusoe economy. At equilibrium, the demand for coconuts will equal the supply of coconuts and the demand for labour will equal the supply of labour. [5] Graphically this occurs when the diagrams under consumer and producer are superimposed. [7] Notice that, MRS Leisure ...

  5. Economic equilibrium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economic_equilibrium

    In a monopoly, marginal revenue (MR) equals marginal cost (MC). The equilibrium quantity is obtained from where MR and MC intersect and the equilibrium price can be found on the demand curve where MR = MC. Property P1 is not satisfied because the amount demand and the amount supplied at the equilibrium price are not equal.

  6. Lerner index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lerner_Index

    For L = -1/E d and E d = -1/L, the elasticity of demand for industry A will be -2.5. We can use the value of the Lerner index to calculate the marginal cost (MC) of a firm as follows: 0.4 = (10 – MC) ÷ 10 ⇒ MC = 10 − 4 = 6. The missing values for industry B are found as follows: from the E d value of -2, we find that the Lerner index is ...

  7. Multiple-criteria decision analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple-criteria_decision...

    In this example a company should prefer product B's risk and payoffs under realistic risk preference coefficients. Multiple-criteria decision-making (MCDM) or multiple-criteria decision analysis (MCDA) is a sub-discipline of operations research that explicitly evaluates multiple conflicting criteria in decision making (both in daily life and in settings such as business, government and medicine).

  8. Bertrand competition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bertrand_competition

    The Nash Equilibrium in the Bertrand model is the mutual best response; an equilibrium where neither firm has an incentive to deviate from it. As illustrated in the Diagram 2, the Bertrand-Nash equilibrium occurs when the best response function for both firm's intersects at the point, where P 1 N = P 2 N = M C {\displaystyle P_{1}^{N}=P_{2}^{N ...

  9. Cournot competition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cournot_competition

    Cournot's model of competition is typically presented for the case of a duopoly market structure; the following example provides a straightforward analysis of the Cournot model for the case of Duopoly. Therefore, suppose we have a market consisting of only two firms which we will call firm 1 and firm 2.
