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
