Measuring robust overall profit efficiency with uncertainty in input and output price vectors
The classic overall profit needs precise information of inputs, outputs, inputs and outputs price vectors. In real word, all data are not certain. Therefore, in this case, stochastic and fuzzy methods use for measuring overall profit efficiency. These methods require more information about the data such as probability distribution function or data membership function, which in some cases may no...
متن کاملOn Price Caps under Uncertainty
This paper shows how standard arguments supporting the imposition of price caps break down in the presence of demand uncertainty. In particular, though in the deterministic case the introduction or lowering of a price cap (above marginal cost) results in increased production, increased total welfare, decreased prices, and increased consumer welfare, we show that all of the above comparative sta...
متن کاملMineral Reserves under Price Uncertainty
National reporting organizations and regulatory bodies for the minerals and mining sector are requiring publicly reported OreReserve estimates to take account of uncertainties. Whilst methodologies that account for physical uncertainty appear relatively well developed, methodologies which can take account of economic uncertainty appear much less so. To counter this shortfall, we present an effi...
متن کاملProduction under Uncertainty: A Characterization of Welfare Enhancing and Optimal Price Caps
We analyze the effect of price caps on equilibrium production and welfare in oligopoly under demand uncertainty. We find that high price caps always increase production and welfare as compared to the situation without price cap. Price caps close to marginal cost may lead to zero production, depending on the nature of uncertainty. We characterize the optimal price cap and show that typically, th...
متن کاملMeasuring Price and Yield Risk
Y variability for a given crop differs geographically and depends on soil type and quality, climate, and the use of irrigation. Yield variability is often measured by an indicator known as the “coefficient of variation,” which measures randomness relative to the mean (or average) value in the yield series. Using this measure, variability in corn yields, for example, ranges from about 0.2 to abo...
