The document also examines economies and diseconomies of scale, as well as production using multiple inputs through isoquants and the marginal rate of technical substitution. It concludes by discussing fixed costs and relevant costs in decision making.
The lazy programmer's guide to writing thousands of testsScott Wlaschin
We are all familiar with example-based testing, as typified by TDD and BDD, where each test is hand-crafted.
But there's another approach to writing tests. In the "property-based testing" approach, a single test is run hundreds of times with randomly generated inputs. Property-based testing is a great way to find edge cases, and also helps you to understand and document the behavior of your code under all conditions.
This talk will introduce property-based testing, show you how it works, and demonstrate why you should consider adding this powerful technique to your toolbelt.
Functional Programming Patterns (NDC London 2014)Scott Wlaschin
(video of these slides available here http://fsharpforfunandprofit.com/fppatterns/)
In object-oriented development, we are all familiar with design patterns such as the Strategy pattern and Decorator pattern, and design principles such as SOLID.
The functional programming community has design patterns and principles as well.
This talk will provide an overview of some of these, and present some demonstrations of FP design in practice.
The document discusses property-based testing (PBT), an automated testing technique that generates random inputs to test code according to desired properties. PBT can find bugs more efficiently than traditional testing by leveraging generated data. It explains how PBT works by describing the inputs to generate, properties to check, running the code, and verifying outputs match properties. PBT is effective for testing complex, stateful systems by modeling state transitions and expected behaviors. Challenges of PBT include managing side effects and performance, but it can find categories of related bugs and provide a good testing ROI.

You've got a pile of assorted functions lying around. Each one is useful and reliable, but they just don't fit together properly. How can you assemble them into a complete system that can stand on its own two feet and terrorize the local villagers?
In this session, I'll show how functional programming can transform all sorts of existing code into shapes that are plug-compatible and which can be bolted together effortlessly.
SAFETY NOTE: The techniques demonstrated are perfectly harmless and can even be used at your workplace -- no lightning bolts required.

The document is a draft code of practice for external hydrant systems in medium and large scale industrial risks. It provides guidelines for classification of occupancies based on fire risk, and provisions for water supply, pumping capacity, and other features of hydrant systems depending on the size and fire risk of the industry. The draft seeks to revise and replace an existing standard on this topic by updating guidelines and expanding the scope to include all medium and large industries, excluding some high-risk industries regulated by other standards. It is seeking public comments on any difficulties that may arise in implementing the standard by July 31, 2011.

This document discusses the concepts of Web 2.0 and Library 2.0. It begins by outlining how user behaviors and expectations have changed with new technologies like smartphones, texting, gaming and social media. Web 2.0 is defined as a more participatory and collaborative web where users generate content through activities like blogging, tagging, and social sharing of photos, videos and reviews. Key differences between Library 1.0 and 2.0 models are more open and globally accessible digital services, user-generated content through tagging and comments, and a focus on conversations and outcomes over information as a commodity. The document provides examples of 2.0 technologies and concepts like folksonomies, podcasting, and making the library available
The Drysdale History Collection contains 4 shelves of materials documenting the school's history from 1969 onwards, including photos, slides, albums, menus, newsletters, programs, brochures, film, fabrics, and newspaper clippings. Currently, the collection aims to maintain, protect, and preserve the materials. In the future, the collection will be organized, scanned, and digitized, with some photos already digitized and stored on a Flickr account. Many photos have been removed from unsafe storage and protected in archival sleeves for preservation.
This document discusses the use of robots in libraries. It describes how over 25 libraries, especially university libraries, have implemented Automated Storage and Retrieval Systems to replace stacks and store their entire collections in a centralized location. It provides examples of robots used in specific libraries, such as Charlie the robotic book trolley at the National Library of Australia, and Vincent and Nancy which are NAO robots that join a makerspace program at Westport Public Library. The document also mentions how makerspaces and 3D printing technologies are becoming more common in public libraries.
Teorya ng Produksyon, input at output, law of deminishing returns para sa Aralin Panlipunan IV na pwedeng idownloard at magamit ng mga guro at mga mag-aaral. Sinamban
The document discusses production theory, which forms the foundation of supply theory. It covers key concepts such as:
1) Short-run vs long-run production and the fixed and variable nature of inputs.
2) Production functions and the relationship between total, average, and marginal product.
3) The law of diminishing marginal returns and the three stages of production.
4) Isoquants, isocost lines, and how firms determine optimal input combinations to minimize costs.
The document discusses the theory of producers' behavior and costs of production. It covers:
1) Production - including production functions, inputs, outputs, and the relationship between inputs and outputs.
2) Costs of production - including fixed costs, variable costs, total costs, average costs like average fixed cost, average variable cost, average total cost, and marginal cost. It discusses how these costs change in the short-run and long-run.
3) Input choices - including isoquants, marginal rate of technical substitution, returns to scale, isocost lines, and how firms choose inputs to minimize costs and maximize profits.
H2 Economics - Costs and Production Lecture 1Dixon Ho
1) The document discusses different types of costs firms face in the short run including fixed costs, variable costs, total costs, marginal costs, average costs, and opportunity costs.
2) It provides examples to illustrate concepts like explicit costs being actual payments for resources while implicit costs are opportunity costs of a firm's own resources.
3) Cost curves like total fixed cost, total variable cost, and total cost are introduced to show how they change with different levels of output in the short run when some factors are fixed.
1. There are differences between accounting costs and economic costs, as well as accounting profit and economic profit. Accounting only considers explicit costs, while economics considers both explicit and implicit opportunity costs.
2. Inputs can be either fixed or variable. In the short run, at least one input is fixed, while in the long run all inputs are variable. Production functions show the relationship between inputs and outputs.
3. Cost curves like total, average, and marginal costs are used to analyze costs in the short and long run. Economies and diseconomies of scale impact the long-run average cost curve.
Microeconomics-The cost of production.pptmayamonfori
The document discusses the costs of production, including:
1) It defines key terms like total cost, fixed cost, variable cost, average costs, and marginal cost and shows how they relate through examples.
2) The first example illustrates a farmer's production function and how costs like labor vary with quantity produced in the short run.
3) The second example more generally shows how average and marginal costs behave as quantity increases, with the average total cost curve typically being U-shaped.
The document discusses the different types of costs firms face such as fixed, variable, explicit and implicit costs. It explains the concepts of total, average and marginal costs. The document also covers the law of diminishing returns and how it impacts marginal product and costs in both the short-run and long-run for firms.
The document discusses various factors of production including land, labor, capital and entrepreneurship. It then defines different types of costs businesses face such as explicit costs, implicit costs, fixed costs, variable costs, total costs, average costs, marginal costs, accounting profit and economic profit. It provides examples to illustrate the differences between these concepts.
The document provides instructions for conducting a cost-benefit analysis in Excel for a proposed city baseball stadium project. It includes entering initial costs and projected annual costs and benefits for 10 years. Formulas are provided to calculate the total benefit each year, discount factors to calculate present value, and net present value. The completed analysis shows the stadium project has a negative net present value at a 10% discount rate, but would break even at a 7.4% discount rate.
Marginal cost is the increase in total cost from producing one more unit of output. It is usually rising as quantity increases due to diminishing marginal productivity. Average total cost is total cost divided by quantity and is typically U-shaped as initially fixed costs are spread over more units but variable costs eventually increase faster than output. Understanding costs like marginal, average, fixed and variable helps firms determine optimal production levels to maximize profits.

The marginal product of the third washing station is the change in total output from adding that station. With 2 stations they washed 100 cars. With 3 stations they washed 150 cars. So the change, or marginal product, of adding the third station is 150 - 100 = 50 cars per day.
Firms face three main decisions: (1) quantity of output to supply, (2) production technique to use, and (3) quantity of inputs to demand. These decisions are based on the price of output, available production techniques, and input prices.
In the short run, firms have fixed costs that do not depend on output level. They also have variable costs that vary with output. Total cost is the sum of total fixed and total variable costs. Marginal cost is the change in total cost from producing one additional unit. It reflects changes in variable costs only. As a firm approaches its short-run capacity, marginal costs will ultimately increase with output.
This document discusses production and cost concepts. It begins by listing learning outcomes related to production functions, costs, efficiency, and Cobb-Douglas production functions. It then covers short-run and long-run production functions, the law of diminishing returns, costs including total, average, and marginal costs, and the three stages of production. It provides examples of production functions and discusses the relationship between inputs and output as well as returns to scale.
A firm aims to maximize profits by determining the optimal combination of inputs and level of output. It does this by analyzing its production function and constraints.
The production function defines the maximum output obtainable from all combinations of inputs, while isoquants show equal levels of output from different input combinations. The firm chooses the lowest cost combination by finding where an isoquant is tangent to an isocost line, known as the equilibrium point.
The expansion path traces the optimal input combinations as total costs change, allowing the firm to determine the most profitable scale of production.

The document provides an overview of key concepts related to marginal analysis, inputs, outputs, and costs. It discusses marginal and average quantities, production functions, fixed and variable inputs, diminishing returns, fixed and variable costs, total cost, marginal and average cost, short-term and long-term costs, and returns to scale. Key terms like marginal cost, marginal benefit, total cost curves, average cost curves, and their relationships are defined.
This chapter discusses the background of supply in microeconomics. It defines short-run and long-run costs, and identifies fixed and variable factors that determine total, average, and marginal costs of production. Short-run refers to a period where at least one factor is fixed, while in the long-run all factors can be varied. Total cost is the sum of total fixed cost and total variable cost. Average and marginal costs are also introduced and applied in examples. Students are assigned group and individual assignments analyzing supply and costs for companies using microeconomics concepts.
This document discusses limiting factor analysis for multi-product decision making. It provides steps to determine the optimal production plan using the limiting factor to maximize contribution or profit. The steps include determining the limiting factor, calculating contribution per unit of the limiting factor, ranking products based on contribution per unit of the limiting factor, and using the limiting factor to produce products in the ranked order. An example is provided to illustrate the solution.
The document discusses production functions and costs. It defines key concepts such as production functions, isoquants, returns to scale, fixed costs, variable costs, marginal costs, average costs, and opportunity costs. It provides examples and graphs to illustrate these concepts, including how marginal product and costs change with different levels of input. Production functions can take different forms depending on factor substitutability and returns to scale. Costs are classified as fixed, variable, marginal, average, accounting and economic. Opportunity costs should be considered rather than sunk costs in decision making.
The firm is an economic institution that transforms factors of production into consumer goods – it:
Organizes factors of production.
Produces goods and services.
Sells produced goods and services.
The document discusses various concepts related to production costs, including:
1. It defines costs and different types of costs such as explicit costs, implicit costs, fixed costs, and variable costs.
2. It explains the differences between economic profit and accounting profit, noting that accounting profit ignores implicit costs.
3. It discusses production functions and how diminishing marginal returns can affect total costs in both the short-run and long-run for firms.
The document discusses key concepts related to production functions:
1. A production function specifies the optimal input combinations needed to produce a given output level, and depends on industry and technology.
2. Producers must determine production levels, capacity, input combinations, and prices to maximize profits and minimize costs.
3. Isoquants illustrate the different combinations of inputs that produce the same output amount, and become curved as substitutability decreases.
4. Marginal product and returns to scale analysis helps producers optimize input use in the stages of increasing, constant, and diminishing returns.

Economies and Diseconomies of Scale
Production With Multiple Inputs
Time and Costs: Observations on Fixed Costs

3. Production Theory: Basics
Production Function: The relationship describing the most
output possible with a given quantity of an input.
(Or the least amount inputs necessary to produce some given
level of output.)
Marginal Product: The change in total product when one
of the inputs is changed.
Approximation: MPx =Change in output/change in
input
Exact (calculus): MPx =dq/dx
Average Product: Output per unit of input
APx =Q/X

MP increases and then decreases
Think about what an odd world it would be if MP did not
decrease.
(This is commonly defined as diminishing marginal returns).
AP begins to decrease only when MP<AP
Techies can prove this using about two lines of calculus, but it
has a common sense explanation as well
8. Suppose that the output is worth $10 per unit and labor costs $15 per hour.
Total value (value of output – cost of inputs) is as follows.
Hours of Quantity of Marginal Total Value
Labor Output Product

from the extra output produced when another
unit of the input is employed. Formally,
MRP = Marginal Product x Price of output
11. Cost Function: Basics
Cost Function: The relationship describing the least expensive way
producing a given quantity of output. (Or, equivalently, the most
output that can be produced for a given level of expenditure.)
“Costs” are simply of way of expressing economically important
information about what the firm does. As such, when we
describe costs, we are really summarizing two kinds of things
The production technology (e.g., what sorts of inputs are able to produce
what sorts of outputs)
The cost of the inputs
Thus, if we have described the technology by writing out the
production function, we need only to know the price of the
inputs before we can describe costs.
12. Example: Given the production function suppose that cost
of the fixed input=$10 and wage rate=$5)
Cost Function
Hours of Quantity of
Labor Output Total Cost MC AC
0 0 $ 10
1 1 $ 15 5 15
2 3 $ 20 2.5 6.7
3 6 $ 25 1.67 4.17
4 8 $ 30 2.5 3.75
5 9 $ 35 5.0 3.89
13. Economies and diseconomies of
scale
Economies of scale the tendency for AC to decrease
when output increases
MC<AC
Diseconomies of Scale: The tendency for AC to
increase when output increases
MC>AC
14. Why Economies of Scale?
Learning by doing/gains from specialization
The presence of fixed costs
Pure technological factors
Pecuniary Economies: Reduction in input prices
by purchasing in volume.
16. Production with multiple inputs
There is more than one way to do most things.
(Think of examples where this is and isn’t the
case.) Thus, the essential problem is how to find
the optimal mix of inputs. This can be stated
formally in either of two ways.
Minimize the cost of producing a given quantity of
output
Maximize the output from a given level of
expenditures.
17. Isoquant: various combinations of inputs that will
produce a given level of output. (equivalent to an
indifference curve)

18. Marginal Rate of Technical Substitution: The rate at which
one input can be substituted for another without any change
in output

20. MRTS measures the relative productivity of the
two inputs
The ratio of their prices measures their relative
costs
If an input’s relative productivity is greater than
its relative cost, buy more of that input and less
of the other
21. Time and Costs: Observations on
Fixed Costs
“Long run”, “short run” and fixed costs
Long Run: Period of time sufficiently long to vary all
costs.
Short Run: Any period less than the long run.
Fixed Costs: Those costs that cannot be varied in the
short run.
22. Distinguishing fixed and sunk costs
Fixed costs: Costs that don’t vary with output
an airplane
Sunk costs: Costs that can’t be recovered
a railroad track
23. what must be given up to get
something (which is often more than
the measured monetary cost)
Economic profit: Revenues-Opportunity Cost
As distinguished from accounting cost: The dollars that
must be given up to get something else. and accounting
profit: Revenues-accounting cost
Examples of Opportunity Cost
Retained earnings (was Coca Cola’s great cash flow free?)
Make vs buy (Was Valuejet really wrong to outsource
maintenance?)
Time (Who gets the keys to the company jet?)
24. Ideas That Matter: Relevant Costs
When do fixed costs matter? As we’ve already seen,
certainly not in any decision involving production levels,
or pricing. Consider these examples
R&D: “We’ve come too far to stop now.
Buildings: “We built in the wrong location, but we’re there now
Eternal problem: Managers who are given the power to
make fixed investments need to be held accountable for
those decisions. But how do you get them to ignore the
investment once it’s made?
25. Ideas That Matter: Defining and
measuring efficiency
Pure Waste: not obtaining maximum output
from a given amount of inputs
Allocative Efficiency: Employing the wrong mix
of inputs
Caution: Is waste really waste if it would cost
more to eliminate than would be saved by
eliminating
26. Ideas That Matter: Comparative
Advantage
Suppose:
Attilla can produce 4 units of clean room or 2 units of clean dog per hour
Godzilla can produce 1 unit of clean room or 1 unit of clean dog per
hour.
Note: Godzilla is, by one measure, less productive.
Can It Ever Be Efficient to Use a Less Productive Asset? Sure :
Suppose both kids spent 1 hour on each chore (4 hours of total work),
producing 5 units of clean room and 3 units of clean dog.
They could produce the same output with less effort. Godzilla could spend
2 hours on dog (producing 2 units of clean dog). Attilla could spend 1.25
hours on room (producing 5 units of clean room) and 0.5 hours on dog
(producing 1 unit of clean dog). They get the same output with only 3.75
hours of labor
27. Conclusion: The Value of Comparative Advantage
An input is said to have a comparative advantage over another input if
the relative cost of producing one good is lower (Godzilla has a
comparative advantage in the production of clean dog since she only has
to give up one unit of clean room to get an extra unit of clean dog.)
As long as there is a comparative advantage, specialization increases
output
Implications of Comparative Advantage
What do “menial” workers really produce?
Trade is good: the U.S. might benefit from trade with developing
countries that are not as absolutely productive but that have a
comparative advantage in the production of some goods
28. Complications:Multiple Outputs
Most production processes produce more than one
output
Cars and SUV’s. Consulting services and audits. Finance
majors and marketing majors
Economies of Scope are said to exist when it is less
expensive to produce more than one output jointly than
separately.
Why economies of scope?
The most likely source of economies of scope is
common overhead
29. Complications: Multiple Plants
: Some firms have several plants that produce
the same output. This raises two kinds of issues.
Why?
If it is efficient to have more than one plant,
how much output should be assigned to each
plant
30. Transfer Pricing
Many firms use a separate division to produce some intermediate input. What “price’ should the
division charge for its input.?
The “customer” would like to have a low price (zero is nice) but this creates incentives to produce
too much .
The “seller” would like to have a high price (it is in the position of being a monopolist with a
captive customer) but this creates incentives to produce too little
Principle: transferring at marginal cost requires the end user to recognize the true cost of the
good.
Complications
How do you measure marginal cost (especially when the manager of the intermediate division has
incentives to inflate costs).
What if marginal costs are below average costs meaning that the intermediate division operates at
a loss (Certainly a possibility and if so, how do you assure the manager of the intermediate
division that its good to run a losing operation.)
What if the intermediate good can also be sold on an open market
Actually a blessing since the cost of transfering the intermediate good to the final producer is
really just the price at which it could be sold on the market
But this may create real hard feelings if the outside customers of the intermediate good compete
with the final manufacturer.
