Cost Minimizing Input Choice
How does a firm select inputs to produce a given output at minimum cost? Assumptions
◦ Two Inputs: Labor (L) and capital (K) ◦ Price of labor: wage rate (w) ◦ The price of capital (r)
In the short run, some costs are fixed In the long run, firm can change anything including plant size
◦ Can produce at a lower average cost in long run than in short run ◦ Capital and labor are both flexible
input added to the production process will add an equivalent amount of output.

Input Substitution When an Input Price Change
If the price of labor changes, then the slope of the isocost line changes, -(w/r) It now takes a new quantity of labor and capital to produce the output If price of labor increases relative to price of capital, and capital is substituted for labor

– 谁将得到住房？ – 各种类型的市场机制将提供多少住房？ – 垄断市场供应的住房比竞争市场供应的是多 还是少? – 房租管制是增加还是减少了住房的均衡数量? – 哪一种经济机制将提供帕雷托有效的住房数 量?

Dominant Strategies
Dominant Strategy is one that is optimal no matter what an opponent does
◦ An Example
A and B sell competing products They are deciding whether to undertake advertising campaigns
◦ A set of strategies (or actions) such that each player is doing the best it can given the actions of its opponents
The Nash Equilibrium Revisited
None of the players have incentive to deviate from its Nash strategy, therefore it is stable
◦ Ex: firms competing with each other by setting prices, group of consumers bidding against each other in an auction
Strategic decisions result in payoffs to the players: outcomes that generate rewards or benefits
Dominant strategy is a special case of Nash equilibrium

范里安 微观经济学现代观点 英文版
范里安微观经济学现代观点英文版In the realm of economic literature, Hal Varian's "Microeconomic Analysis" stands as a seminal work, offering a contemporary perspective on the intricate nuances of microeconomics. The English edition, particularly, serves as a comprehensive guide for students and scholars alike, providing insights into the fundamental principles and applications of microeconomic theory.The book's strength lies in its ability to strike a balance between theoretical rigor and practical relevance. Varian masterfully integrates complex economic concepts with real-world examples, making them accessible and engaging for a wide audience. The narrative flows smoothly, guiding the reader through the intricacies of consumer behavior, producer theory, market structures, and beyond. One noteworthy aspect of the book is its emphasis on the use of mathematics in microeconomic analysis. Varian argues that while mathematics can be a powerful tool for understanding economic phenomena, it should not be the sole focus. Instead, he advocates for a holistic approach that combines mathematical analysis with intuitive explanationsand empirical evidence. This approach ensures that the reader not only understands the theory but also appreciates its practical implications.Another noteworthy feature is the book's coverage of recent developments in microeconomics. Varian keeps the content updated, incorporating the latest research and theories in the field. This ensures that the reader gains insights into the evolving nature of microeconomics and its relevance in today's world.The book's language is clear and concise, making it easy to follow even for those new to the subject. Varian's writing style is engaging and informative, often using anecdotes and examples to illustrate complex economic concepts. This approach makes the material more accessible and enjoyable to read.However, it is worth noting that the book's focus on contemporary microeconomics may make it less suitable for those interested in a more historical or classical approach to the subject. Additionally, while the use of mathematics enhances the analysis, it may also pose a challenge for those with limited mathematical background.Overall, Hal Varian's "Microeconomic Analysis" English edition is an indispensable resource for anyone interestedin understanding the modern perspective of microeconomics. Its comprehensive coverage, engaging writing style, and emphasis on practical relevance make it a must-read for students, scholars, and practitioners alike.**范里安《微观经济学现代观点》英文版深度解析** 在经济学文献领域，哈尔·范里安的《微观经济学分析》堪称一部经典之作，它以现代视角深入剖析了微观经济学的微妙之处。

◊ The law of diminishing marginal product:
for most kinds of production processes,
the MP of a factor diminishes, given all
other inputs are being held fixed.
