Tangency Capacity Notions Based upon the Pro?t and Cost Functions: A Non-Parametric Approach and a Comparison

Briec, Walter; Kerstens, Kristiaan; Prior, Diego - IÉSEG School of Management, Université Catholique de Lille - 2009

This contribution provides a way to de?ne and compute a tangency notion of economic capacity based upon the relation between the various directional distance functions and the pro?t and cost functions using non-parametric technologies. A new result relating pro?t and cost function-based tangency...
