COMPLEMENT-IN-PRODUCTION: One of two goods that are produced jointly using the same resource -- that is, the production of one good automatically triggers the production of the other. The terms "joint products" or "by-products" are two terms commonly used for complements-in-production. A complement-in-production is one of two alternatives falling within the other prices determinant of supply. The other is a substitute-in-production. An increase in the price of one complement-in-production causes a increase in supply of the other. Complements-in-production are goods produced jointly from the same resource or input. This typically happens when the resource in question has parts that can be separated into different products. One example is the production of two goods -- beef and leather -- from one resource -- cattle. Another complement in production example is lumber and sawdust, both produced from a single tree.

Elasticity Basics
In this lesson, we will examine the basics of elasticity, including what it is, how it is measured, and how it is used in market analysis. - The first unit of this lesson, The Concept, introduces the elasticity concept and previews its role in market analysis.
- In the second unit, A Little More, examines the importance of elasticity for such topics as market shocks, taxes, and price controls.
- The third unit, Measurement, takes a close look at how elasticity is measured, focusing on the coefficient of elasticity.
- The fourth unit, A Continuum, examines the five categories of elasticity, ranging from elastic to inelastic, that form a continuum.
- The fifth unit and final unit, Market Elasticity, closes this lesson by introducing four key elasticity concepts for the market demand and supply.
