The aim of this chapter is the relationship between the cost function, stylizing returns to scale, and the supply function of the competitive firm at disaggregate and aggregate level. We will use the standard microeconomic theory of optimal production and check under which assumptions on fixed and/or variable costs solutions may fail to exist.. For simplicity the cost function is considered as already optimized and used as such in the profit function of the firm.
L'obiettivo di questo capitolo è il rapporto tra la funzione di costo, che stilizza le ipotesi sui rendimenti di scala, e la funzione d'offerta dell'impresa concorrenziale, singola e aggregata. Useremo la teoria microeconomica standard della produzione allo scopo di verificare, per quali ipotesi sui costi fissi e/o variabili, la soluzione può non esistere. Per semplicità, la funzione di costo è considerata come già ottimizzata rispetto alla domanda di inputs e usata come tale nella funzione di profitto dell'impresa.

Abstract
The aim of this chapter is the relationship between the cost function, stylizing returns to scale, and the supply function of the competitive firm at disaggregate and aggregate level. We will use the standard microeconomic theory of optimal production and check under which assumptions on fixed and/or variable costs solutions may fail to exist.. For simplicity the cost function is considered as already optimized and used as such in the profit function of the firm.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
