Lesson 23: Factor Market Equilibrium | Unit 4: Monopsony
|
Page: 17 of 24

- The labor employment decision:
- A firm maximizes profit when the additional cost of a decision is equal to the additional revenue, whether that decision is producing output or employing factor services.
- The critical conclusion from this analysis is that a monopsony employs a factor such that marginal revenue product (MRP) is equal to marginal factor cost (MFC).
- MRP = MFC
- However, because this marginal factor cost (MFC) is greater than factor price (W) for monopsony, we have the secondary result that:
- MRP > W
- In other words, a perfectly competitive firm will hire workers up to the point where the extra revenue generated by the last worker is greater than the wage paid.

INDUCED INVESTMENT Business investment expenditures that depend on income or production (especially national income and gross domestic product). That is, changes in income induce changes in investment. Induced investment reflects the observation that the business sector is inclined to reinvest profits (boosted by a growing economy) in capital goods. It is measured by the marginal propensity to invest (MPI) and is reflected by the positive slope of investment line. The alternative to induced investment is autonomous investment, which does not depend on income.
