  2. Cost–volume–profit analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cost–volume–profit...

    CVP is a short run, marginal analysis: it assumes that unit variable costs and unit revenues are constant, which is appropriate for small deviations from current production and sales, and assumes a neat division between fixed costs and variable costs, though in the long run all costs are variable.

  3. Inframarginal analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inframarginal_Analysis

    The analysis method based on marginal utility and marginal productivity in modern mainstream economics textbooks is marginal analysis. However, Yang Xiaokai believes that marginal analysis cannot solve the problem of division of labor, so he introduced the inframarginal analysis. In brief, inframarginal analysis is an analytical method that ...

  4. Isoquant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isoquant

    In managerial economics, isoquants are typically drawn along with isocost curves in capital-labor graphs, showing the technological tradeoff between capital and labor in the production function, and the decreasing marginal returns of both inputs. In managerial economics, the unit of isoquant is commonly the net of capital cost.

  5. Production function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Production_function

    Graph of total, average, and marginal product In economics , a production function gives the technological relation between quantities of physical inputs and quantities of output of goods. The production function is one of the key concepts of mainstream neoclassical theories, used to define marginal product and to distinguish allocative ...

  6. Cost curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cost_curve

    A short-run marginal cost (SRMC) curve graphically represents the relation between marginal (i.e., incremental) cost incurred by a firm in the short-run production of a good or service and the quantity of output produced. This curve is constructed to capture the relation between marginal cost and the level of output, holding other variables ...

  7. Profit maximization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Profit_maximization

    An example diagram of Profit Maximization: In the supply and demand graph, the output of is the intersection point of (Marginal Revenue) and (Marginal Cost), where =.The firm which produces at this output level is said to maximize profits.

  8. Marginal distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marginal_distribution

    The marginal probability P(H = Hit) is the sum 0.572 along the H = Hit row of this joint distribution table, as this is the probability of being hit when the lights are red OR yellow OR green. Similarly, the marginal probability that P(H = Not Hit) is the sum along the H = Not Hit row.

  9. Total cost - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_cost

    Here output is measured along the horizontal axis. In the Cost-Volume-Profit Analysis model, total costs are linear in volume. The total cost curve, if non-linear, can represent increasing and diminishing marginal returns. In economics, total cost (TC) is the minimum financial cost of producing some quantity of output.
