CHAPTER 5: SECTION 2

• Output: What firms produce• Input: What firms need to produce. Factors of

Production. • Raw materials: natural resources• Variable: Something that can change

EX: Labor: The number of worker a firm has can change from one day to the next

• Constant: Something that stays the same

TERMS TO KNOW

The relationship between the factors of production and the output of goods and services.

Short run a period of production that allows producers to change only the amount of the variable input called labor. Long run, a period of production long enough for producers to adjust the quantities of all their resources, including capital.

THEORY OF PRODUCTION

In the short run, output will change as one input is varied while the others are held constant.

LAW OF VARIABLE PROPORTIONS

Describes the relationship between changes in output to different amounts of a single input while other inputs are held constant.

PRODUCTION FUNCTION

Total product: Total output produced by the firm.

Extra output or change in total product caused by the addition of one

more unit of variable input.

MARGINAL PRODUCT

• Increasing returns, diminishing returns, and negative returns

• Based on the way marginal product changes as the variable input of labor is changed.
