The Most Productive Scale Compared to Demand Fulfillment (Case Study: Insurance Companies)

Economics depends on the economic scale of planning. Economists study the characteristics of the production function, while community operating management focuses on demand realization, so that loss of sales or inventory prevents cost reductions and maximizes profits. However, companies with a lack of capacity need to achieve economies of scale and demand to realize them simultaneously, especially when corporate demand is fluctuating. But always the customer's demand is not equal to output, the demand level may be less than the  maximum output level of the highest productivity scale (MPSS), between the highest output level of the MPSS and the maximum output level, or greater than the maximum output level. In this paper, we intend to find the highest level of productivity in relation to the demand for active insurance companies in 1396 in all three scenarios. In fact, we will examine the applicability of Lee's (2016) paper in insurance companies in Iran.
