Production
- The first unit of this lesson, Short-Run Production, begins our study by introducing a few basic concepts underlying production, especially short run, long run, fixed input, and variable input.
- In the second unit, Production Measures, we take a look the three standard measures of production -- total product, average product, and marginal product.
- The third unit, Product Curves, then presents graphical relations for these three measures -- total product curve, average product curve, and marginal product curve.
- In the fourth unit, Long-Run Production, we examine the role returns to scale play in long-run production.
- The fifth and final unit, Supply, then closes this lesson by previewing the importance of production to the supply decisions by firms.s

COMMODITY MONEY A medium of exchange (money) that has both value in use and value in exchange. Commodity money is first and foremost a commodity that provides users with satisfaction of their wants and needs. However, it also has the secondary function of acting as a medium of exchange for the economy. In the march toward economic complexity, commodity money emerged from barter exchanges, but then ultimately gave way to modern fiat money.
