一. 供给量 在一定时期内、一定条件下,生产者愿
意并且能够向市场提供的商品或劳务的数量。
影响供给量的主要因素: 1. 商品自身的价格(P); 2. 成本(C); 3. 对未来的预期(E);
确定方案。决策意味着选择。必须围绕问题形成两个 以上的合理方案。
选择方案。在考虑各种制约因素的限制下,对每个方 案进行评估,选择其中最优方案。
方案实施。决策只有实施才能取得效果。

2 关于企业产量。在短期内,企业无力定价,
但能根据市场价格调整自己的产量。从长期看, 企业无法控制产量,只有在长期平均成本曲线 最低点生产,才能获得最大利润。 3 关于企业竞争策略。低成本竞争策略是企业 唯一的也是最佳的竞争策略。

管理经济学大纲ManagerialEconomicsSyllabus
PEKING UNIVERSITYHSBC BUSINESS SCHOOLProfessor KONG YingCourse OutlineManagerial EconomicsCOURSE DESCRIPTIONManagerial Economics is the application of economic theory and methodology to managerial decision making problems within various organizational settings such as a firm or a government agency. The emphasis in this course will be on demand analysis and estimation, production and cost analysis under different market conditions, advanced topics in business strategy. Students taking this course are expected to have had some exposure to economics and be comfortable with basic algebra. Some knowledge of calculus would also be helpful.COURSE OBJECTIVEIn today's dynamic economic environment, effective managerial decision making requires timely and efficient use of information. The purpose of this course is to provide students with a basic understanding of the economic theory and analytical tools that can be used in decision making problems. Students who successfully complete the course will have a good understanding of economic concepts and tools that have direct managerial applications. The course will sharpen their analytical skills through integrating their knowledge of the economic theory with decision making techniques. Students will learn to use economic models to isolate the relevant elements of a managerial problem, identify their relationships, and formulate them into a managerial model to which decision making tools can be applied. Among the topics covered in the course are: price determination in alternative market structures, demand theory, production and cost functions, and business strategy. In addition, the course will provide a basic introduction to econometric analysis and its role in managerial decision making.TEXBOOKS AND CLASS NOTESThe main textbook is Managerial Economics and Business Strategy, 7th ed. by Michael Baye, McGraw HillClass notes (PPT) and other materials will be posted online for students download.COURSE EVELUATIONMidterm Exam: 30%Final Exam: 50% Consulting Projects: 20%SYLLABUSAll chapters listed below refer to the Baye textbook unless otherwise indicated.

Students are required to independently conduct 4 consulting reports regarding to the 4 projects. The exercises require you to apply some of the tools you learned in each chapter covered in the class to make a recommendation based on an actual business scenario. The topics of 4 consulting projects are,·Estimating Industry Demand for Fresh Market Carrots·Estimation and Analysis of Demand for Fast Food Meals·Production Decisions at Harding Silicon Enterprises, Inc.·Pricing and Production Decisions at PoolVac, Inc.Cheating, Plagiarism and Free RiderThe penalties for any form of cheating or plagiarism (whether in exams or project) are severe. Written work submitted must be your own. Any sources of information used in completing your work must be identified. Plagiarized written work will not be accepted and you should be aware that non acceptance of a submission might, in some cases, lead to failure in the course. Since the project is a team work, the final report should identify each student’s contribution. The significant uneven contribution in the work will lead to less mark for the student who made less contribution comparing to his/her team member.。

Marginal Revenue
Price equals marginal revenue for
a perfectly competitive firm because the firm does not have to lower the price to sell more units of output The profit-maximizing level of output occurs where marginal revenue equals marginal cost because any other level of output will result in smaller profit

管理经济学论文英文Title: The Impact of Pricing Strategies on Consumer Behavior Abstract:As markets become more competitive and consumers become more price-conscious, the importance of pricing strategies in influencing consumer behavior has never been more critical. This paper examines how various pricing strategies, such as dynamic pricing, price bundling, and promotional pricing impact consumer behavior. It also explores the role of psychological pricing tactics in shaping consumer perceptions and purchase decisions. Using economic theory and empirical evidence, we analyze the effects of pricing strategies on consumer demand, price sensitivity, brand loyalty, and overall market competitiveness. The findings of this research provide valuable insights for businesses aiming to optimize their pricing strategies to drive sales and enhance profitability.Introduction:Understanding consumer behavior is essential for businesses seeking to gain a competitive edge in the marketplace. Pricing strategies play a crucial role in shaping consumer perceptions and purchase decisions. By setting the right price, businesses can influence consumer demand, increase sales, and maximize profits. In this paper, we will explore the impact of various pricing strategies on consumer behavior and discuss their implications for businesses.Literature Review:Previous research has shown that pricing strategies, such as dynamic pricing, price bundling, and promotional pricing, can have a significant impact on consumer behavior. Dynamic pricing, for example, involves adjusting prices based on demand fluctuations and market conditions. Studies have found that dynamic pricing can increase profits by exploiting consumer willingness to pay. Price bundling, on the other hand, involves offering multiple products or services together at a discounted rate. Research has shown that price bundling can increase sales and enhance customer loyalty. Promotional pricing tactics, such as discounts and coupons, can also influence consumer behavior by creating a sense of urgency and incentivizing immediate purchases.Methodology:To examine the impact of pricing strategies on consumer behavior, we will conduct a literature review of existing studies and analyze empirical data on pricing practices and consumer preferences. We will also utilize economic models and theories to assess the effects of pricing strategies on consumer demand, price sensitivity, and brand loyalty. By combining qualitative and quantitative methods, we aim to provide a comprehensive analysis of the relationship between pricing strategies and consumer behavior.Results:Our analysis shows that pricing strategies have a significant impact on consumer behavior. Dynamic pricing can increase profits bytargeting price-sensitive consumers and capturing surplus value. Price bundling can enhance customer loyalty and encourage cross-selling. Promotional pricing tactics can stimulate demand and increase sales volume. Psychological pricing techniques, such as using odd pricing or reference prices, can also influence consumer perceptions and purchase decisions. Overall, businesses that effectively utilize pricing strategies can gain a competitive advantage and drive profitability.Conclusion:Pricing strategies play a crucial role in shaping consumer behavior and influencing purchase decisions. By understanding the effectsof pricing strategies on consumer preferences and market dynamics, businesses can optimize their pricing strategies to drive sales and enhance profitability. This paper provides valuable insights for businesses seeking to improve their pricing practices and gain a competitive edge in today's competitive market environment.。

Discussion
• Cement plants are Constant Returns if the coefficient on Ln Q were 1 • 1.21 is more than 1, which appears to be Decreasing Returns to Scale. • TEST: t = (1.21 -1 ) /.08 = 2.65 • Small Sample, d.f. = 13 - 3 -1 = 9 • critical t = 2.262 • We reject constant returns to scale.

Optimization
• An optimization problem involves the specification of three things:
– Objective function to be maximized or minimized – Activities or choice variables that determine the
