O objetivo deste estudo é traçar o perfil do mestre egresso do Programa Multiinstitucional e Inter-Regional de Pós-Graduação em Ciências Contábeis da UnB/UFPB/UFPE/UFRN, investigando as influências dessa titulação em seu perfil. Para isto, a metodologia adotada caracteriza-se como...

Most lectures teach the relationship between the CES, Cobb-Douglas, and Leontief functions using the value of elasticity of substitution, namely, in the discrete object model. This lecture note aims at being a reference for algebraic computations of the Leontief and Cobb-Douglas functions by...

The standard textbook description of relationship between the LRMC and the SRMC for output levels below the optimum for a particular plant size is typically misleading and imprecise. Students are frequently confused as to how the SRMC can ever be below the LRMC since everything is variable in...

Despite its critical importance in the theory of the firm, marginal cost is unobservable in most production settings. Most cost accounting practices substitute average cost estimates for the unobservable marginal cost; moreover, some cost accounting measures include fixed costs as a component of...

It is well known that Mathematical Programming techniques are well-developed and with widespread application. It would be useful for researchers and practitioners in the information systems field to have a categorization that would show the types of problems that have been solved using these...

The “flipped classroom” has begun to revolutionize the way that students receive information from their teachers and is ushering in a new era of active and creative thinkers. Although flipping the classroom has gained a great deal of popular attention in magazines and blog posts by education...

Italian Abstract: 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...

This is Chapter 10 of Environmental Economics: An Integrated Approach and it provides an overview of the environmental valuations commonly used in environmental economics prior to detailed treatments in later chapters

This is the Preface to Environmental Economics: An Integrated Approach, and it provides a description of the approach taken throughout the book. The approach is to first understand how environmental policy would be conducted in a world of "perfect information," then move on to sources of...

This paper uses both a geometrical and mathematical analysis to explain monopolistic third-degree price discrimination, and it also shows how price discrimination affects society. A frequent policy question in the price discrimination literature is whether to allow third-degree price...
