VON THUNEN MODEL: A model of land use develop by Johann von Thunen that illustrates the trade off between land values and the distance from a central point of attraction. While originally applied to agricultural land use, the von Thunen model is commonly used to explain urban land use patterns. Two primary conclusions from the model are (1) that land values decrease as distance from the central point of attraction increases and (2) that different land use activities are contained in concentric rings equal distance from the central point of attraction based on the weight (or transportation cost) of the activity.

Marginal Product

- A definition of marginal product:
- Marginal product is the change in the quantity of total product resulting from a unit change in a variable input, keeping all other inputs unchanged.
- Marginal product shows how much total product changes when one additional worker is added to the product process.
- It is found by dividing the change in total product by the change in the variable input and is calculated using this formula:
marginal product (MP) | = | change in total product change in variable input |

LONG-RUN AGGREGATE SUPPLY CURVE A graphical representation of the long-run relation between real production and the price level, holding all ceteris paribus aggregate supply determinants constant. The long-run aggregate supply curve, abbreviated LRAS, is one of two curves that graphically capture the supply-side of the aggregate market. The other is the short-run aggregate supply curve. The demand-side of the aggregate market is occupied by the aggregate demand curve. The vertical long-run aggregate supply curve captures the independent relation between real production and the price level that exists in the long run.
