Derived demand for Cobb-Douglas utility Solve this for y'(x) to get the slope of the indifference curve: y'(x) = a y(x) / (1 – a) x. The indifference curve through point ‘a’ in figure 11 has slope y'(4) = 0.5 * 8 / 0.5 * 4 = 2. How do Read more…
concave function. Since the closure of a convex set is convex, the hypograph of f must be a convex set. Hence, f is a concave function. Since 0 < a < 1, H has one zero eigenvalue and one negative one. [embed]https://youtube.com/watch?v=XoAb4BRI1mA[/embed] Is Cobb-Douglas production function concave? For example, the Read more…
15 April 2020. A Cobb-Douglas production function models the relationship between production output and production inputs (factors). It is used to calculate ratios of inputs to one another for efficient production and to estimate technological change in production methods. What is the meaning of Cobb-Douglas? In economics and econometrics, the Read more…
The Cobb-Douglas production function is based on the empirical study of the American manufacturing industry made by Paul H. Douglas and C.W. Cobb. What country did Cobb-Douglas study in? In their study on U.S. manufacturing over the 1899–1922 time period, Cobb and Douglas (1928) argued that if markets were competitive, Read more…
A Cobb-Douglas Function takes the form of Q=KαLβ where Q=output, K=capital, L=labour, and alpha and beta are used to represent input shares of capital and labour respectively. What do alpha and beta represent in Cobb-Douglas? α and β are the output elasticities of capital and labor, respectively. These values are Read more…
For example, the linear function is always convex (and concave); the Cobb-Douglas production function estimated by the factor shares method is always monotonic and concave;² and, more generally, estimated Cobb-Douglas production functions are automatically quasi-concave if they satisfy the monotonicity conditions. Is Cobb-Douglas utility function concave? Since the closure of Read more…
If the webs are made by common house spiders, though, there’s no reason to remove them. They cause no harm. If you don’t like them there, get rid of them, otherwise, don’t bother. Should you remove cobwebs? As soon as you see a cobweb in your home, get rid of Read more…
A two-input Cobb-Douglas production function can be represented graphically in the form of isoquants: combinations of both inputs for which the output is constant. There are four such isoquants in the graph here for the (constant) output levels ¯Y1, ¯Y2, ¯Y3 and ¯Y4. What are the features of Cobb-Douglas function? Read more…
A neutral atom of Cobalt (Co) has an atomic number of 27 and an atomic mass of 59. How do you find the neutral atom? The number of electrons in a neutral atom is equal to the number of protons. The mass number of the atom (M) is equal to Read more…
