微观经济学名词解释一、名词解释1.Consumer Surplus (消费者剩余)Consumer surplus measures the extra utility that consumers receive over what they pay for commodity.消费者在购买商品的过程中获得的超过它所支付的那部分额外的效用(比它所支付的多出来的那部分效用)2.The Indifference Curve & Budget Line (无差异曲线&预算线)The Indifference Curve①The point (A,B,…) on the indifference curve(U1) represent consumption bundles among which the consumer preference is indifferent.②As we increase both goods and thus more in a northeasterly direction across the map, we are crossing successive indifference curves; hence, we are reaching higher and higher level of utility.③Indifference curve are convex to the origin property(凸向原点) is called the law of substitution.(替代规律)在这条曲线上,两种不同商品的各种组合为消费者提供的效用是相同的。

在无差异曲线上,任何一点所代表的消费者偏好都是无差异。

【经济人】从事经济活动得人所采取得经济行为都就是力图以自己得最小经济代价去获得自己得最大经济利益。

【需求】消费者在一定时期内在各种可能得价格水平愿意而且能够购买得该商品得数量。

【供给】生产者在一定时期内在各种价格水平下愿意并且能够提供出售得该种商品得数量。

【均衡价格】。

一种商品得均衡价格就是指该种商品得市场需求量与市场供给量相等时得价格。

【供求定理】。

其她条件不变得情况下,需求变动分别引起均衡价格与均衡数量得同方向得变动,供给变动引起均衡价格得反方向变动,引起均衡数量得同方向变动。

【经济模型】。

经济模型就是指用来描述所研究得经济事物得有关经济变量之间相关关系得理论结构。

【弹性】当一个经济变量发生1%得变动时,由它引起得另一个经济变量变动得百分比。

【弧弹性】表示某商品需求曲线上两点之间得需求量得变动对于价格得变动得反应程度。

【点弹性】表示需求曲线上某一点上得需求量变动对于价格变动得反应程度。

【需求得价格弹性】表示在一定时期内一种商品得需求量变动对于该商品得价格变动得反应程度。

或者说,表示在一定时期内当一种商品得价格变化百分之一时所引起得该商品得需求量变化得百分比。

【需求得交叉价格弹性】。

表示在一定时期内一种商品得需求量得变动相对于它得相关商品得价格变动得反应程度。

或者说,表示在一定时期内当一种商品得价格变化百分之一时所引起得另一种商品得需求量变化百分比。

【替代品】如果两种商品之间能够相互替代以满足消费者得某一种欲望,则称这两种商品之间存在着替代关系,这两种商品互为替代品。

【需求得收入弹性】需求得收入弹性表示在一定时期内消费者对某种商品得需求量变动对于消费者收入量变动得反应程度。

或者说,表示在一定时期内当消费者得收入变化百分之一时所引起得商品需求量变化得百分比。

【恩格尔定律】。

在一个家庭或在一个国家中,食物支出在收入中所占得比例随着收入得增加而减少。

用弹性得概念来表述它则可以就是:对于一个家庭或一个国家来说,富裕程度越高,则食物支出得收入弹性就越小;反之,则越大。

微观经济学名词解释

1、微观经济学(Microeconomics)微观经济学是经济学的一部分,它分析像消费者、厂商和资源所有者这些个体的经济行为(宏观经济学与之相反,它分析像国内总产品这样的经济总体行为)2、需求:消费者在一定时期内在各种可能的价格水平下愿意而且能够购买的该商品的数量。

3、供给:生产者在一定时期内在各种可能的价格水平下愿意而且能够出售的该种商品的数量。

13、序数效用论:认为效用的大小是无法具体衡量的,效用之间的比较只能通过顺序或登记来表示。

14、边际效用递减规律:在一定的时间内,在其他商品的消费数量保持不变的条件下,随着消费者对某种商品消费量的增加,消费者从该商品连续增加的每一消费单位中所得到的效用增量即边际效用是递减的。

【恩格尔定律】。

在一个家庭或在一个国家中,食物支出在收入中所占的比例随着收入的增加而减少。

用弹性的概念来表述它则可以是:对于一个家庭或一个国家来说,富裕程度越高,则食物支出的收入弹性就越小;反之,则越大。

【总效用和边际效用】总效用是指消费者在一定时间内从一定数量的商品的消费中所得到的效用量的总和。

边际效用是指消费者在一定时间内增加一单位商品的消费所得到的效用量的增量。

【边际效用递减规律】在一定时间内,在其他商品的消费数量保持不变的情况下,随着消费者对某种商品消费的增加,消费者从该商品连续增加的每一消费单位中所得到的效用增量即边际效用是递减的。

【消费者均衡】消费者均衡是研究单个消费者如何把有限的货币收入分配在各种商品的购买中以获得最大效用。

【消费者剩余】。

消费者剩余是消费者在购买一定数量的某种商品时愿意支付的最高总价格和实际支付的总价格之间的差额。

【无差异曲线】无差异曲线是用来表示消费者偏好相同的两种商品的所有组合的。

或者说,他时表示能够给消费者带来相同效用水平或满足程度的两种商品的所有组合的。

【无差异曲线的三个基本特征】。

1.在同一坐标平面内的任何两条无差异曲线之间,可以有无数条无差异曲线。

2.在同一坐标平面内的任意两条无差异曲线不会相交。

3.无差异曲线是凸向原点的。

【边际替代率】在维持效用水平不变的前提下,消费者增加一单位某种商品的消费数量时所需要的放弃的另一种商品的消费数量,被称为商品的边际替代率。

【边际报酬递减规律】。

在生产中普遍存在这样一种现象:在技术水平不变的条件下,在连续等量地把某种可变生产要素加到其他一种或几种数量不变的生产要素上去的过程中,当这种可变要素的投入量小于某一特定值时,增加该要素投入所带来的边际产量是递增的;当这种可变要素的投入量连续增加并超过这个特定值时,增加该要素投入所带来的边际产量是递减的。

这就是边际报酬递减规律。

【等产量曲线】等产量曲线就是在技术水平不变的条件下生产同一产量的两种生产要素投入量的所有不同组合的轨迹。

【边际技术替代率】在维持产量水平不变的前提下,增加一单位某种生产要素投入量时,所减少的另一种生产要素的投入量。

【边际技术替代率递减规律】在两种生产要素相互替代的过程中,普遍的存在这样一种现象:在维持产量不变的前提下,当一种生产要素的投入量不断增加时,每一单位的这种生产要素所能替代的另一种生产要素的数量是递减的。

这一现象被称为边际技术替代率递减规律。

【机会成本】。

一般地,生产一单位的某种商品的机会成本是指生产者所放弃的使用相同的生产要素在其它生产用途中所能得到的最高收入。

【隐成本】企业生产的隐成本是指厂商本身自己所拥有的且被用于该企业生产过程的那些生产要素的总价格。

【经济利润和正常利润】企业的所有的显成本和隐成本之和构成总成本。

企业的经济利润是指企业的总收益和总成本之间的差额。

正常利润是指厂商对自己所提供的企业家才能的报酬支付。

【MC为什么呈U型】。

在短期生产中,边际产量的递增阶段对应的是边际成本递减阶段,边际产量递减的阶段对应的是边际成本的递增阶段,与边际产量的最大值相对应的是边际成本的最小值。

正因为如此,在边际报酬递减规律作用下的边际成本MC曲线表现出先降后升的U型特征。

【长期总成本含义】。

指厂商在长期中在每一个产量水平上通过选择最优的生产规模所能达到的最低的总成本。

【完全竞争市场的4个条件】。

1.市场上有大量的买者和卖者。

2.市场上每一个厂商提供的商品都是同质的。

3.所有的资源都具备完全的流动性。

4.信息是完全的。

【完全竞争厂商的短期供给曲线】。

厂商的短期供给曲线应该用SMC曲线上大于和等于AVC最低点的部分来表示,即用SMC 曲线大于和等于停止营业点的部分来表示。

【停止营业点】厂商的平均收益等于平均可变成本,厂商可以继续生产,也可以不生产,也就是说,厂商生产或不生产的结果都是一样的。

由于在这一均衡点上,厂商出于关闭企业的临界点,所以,该均衡点也被称作停止营业点或关闭点。

【短期生产者剩余】。

短期内由于所有产量的边际成本之和就等于总可变成本。

因此,厂商的短期生产者剩余也可以用厂商的总收益和总可变成本之间的差额来表示。

【垄断市场】垄断市场是指整个行业中只有唯一一个厂商的市场组织。

【垄断市场的条件】。

1.市场上只有唯一的一个厂商生产和销售商品;2.该厂商生产和销售的商品没有任何相近的替代品;3.其他任何厂商进入该行业都极为困难或不可能。

【价格歧视】。

含义:以不同的价格销售同一种产品,被称为价格歧视。

基本条件:1.市场的消费者具有不同的偏好,而且这些不同的偏好可以被区分开。

2.不同的消费群体或不同的销售市场是相互隔离的。

一级价格歧视:厂商对每一单位产品都按消费者所愿意支付的最高价格出售。

(完全价格~ 二级价格歧视:要求对不同消费数量段规定不同的价格。

三级价格歧视:垄断厂商对同一种产品在不同市场上(或对不同的消费群)收取不同的价格。

【经济租金】。

要素收入的减少不会减少该要素的供给量。

租金可以看成一种要素收入:其数量的减少不会引起要素供给量的减少。

有许多要素的收入尽管从整体上看不同于租金,但其收入的一部分却可能类似于租金,亦即如果从该要素的全部收入中减去这一部分并不会影响要素的供给,这一部分要素收入称为经济租金。

【基尼系数】。

在洛伦兹曲线图中,衡量不平等面积与完全不平等面积之比,称为基尼系数。

是衡量一个国家贫富差距的标准。

【帕累托最优条件】。

达到帕累托最优状态所必须满足的条件被称为帕累托最优条件。

1.交换的最优条件2.生产的最优条件3.交换和生产的最优条件。

【市场失灵】现实的市场机制在很多场合不能导致资源的有效配置。

【市场失灵的几种情况(5种因素)】。

1.不完全竞争2.外部影响3.公共物品4.不完全信息5.微观经济政策【外部影响】。

某一经济主体的经济行为对社会上其他人的福利造成了影响,但并没有为此而承担后果。

【外部不经济】某个人(生产者或消费者)的一项经济活动会给社会上其他成员带来危害,但他自己却并不为此而支付足够抵偿这种危害的成本,此时,这个人为其活动所付出的私人成本小于该活动所造成的社会成本,这种性质的外部影响称为“外部不经济”。

【科斯定理】。

只要财产权是明确的,并且其交易的成本为零或很小,则无论在开始时将财产权赋予谁,市场均衡的最终结果都是有效率的。

【公共物品】。

既不具有排他性也不具有竞用性的物品叫做公共物品。

只不具有排他性但却具有竞用性的物品叫做公共资源。

【正常品和劣等品】。

正常品的需求量随着消费者的收入水平呈正方向的变动劣等品的需求量随着消费者的收入水平呈反方向的变动【规模经济和规模不经济】。

规模经济:在企业生产扩张的开始阶段,厂商由于扩大生产规模而使经济效益得到提高。

规模不经济:当生产扩张到一定的规模以后,厂商继续扩张生产规模,就会使经济效益下降。

【LC为什么呈U型】。

在产业生产扩张的阶段,会先后出现规模经济和规模不经济。

规模经济导致长期平均成本降低,规模不经济导致LAC上升。

正是由于长期生产的规模经济和规模不经济的作用,决定了LAC曲线表现出先降后升的U型特征。
