In non-competitive market characterized by heterogeneous firms and price uncertainty, we discuss the measurement of economies of scale and scope due to process indivisibilities arising from the task-specific production processes of multiproduct firm. Two competing DEA cost models — one based...

The indivisibility argument plays an important role to explain scale, scope and capacity utilization behavior of multi-product firms. This paper makes an attempt by examining the economic relationship among scale, scope and capacity utilization in the context of a multi-stage production model...
