| | This includes observable forms of economic activity: money, consumption, preferences, buying, selling, prices etc. Some of the models are simple accounting models, while others postulate specific kinds of economic behavior, such as utility or profit maximization. | | | Marginal cost of production divides costs into "fixed" costs which must be paid regardless of how many of a commodity are produced, and "variable costs". |

| | The growth mechanism of consumption-income will also provide State revenue through income taxes. | | | Third, for exactness' sake, one should distinguish "consumption" as use of goods and services from "consumption expenditure" as buying acts. | | | To the extent firms decide to invest forecasting future demand and comparing it with present production capacity, an increase of consumption may induce new investment. |

| Â | H-Net Review: Robin Hermann on The Character of Credit: Personal Debt in English Culture, 1740-1914 |
| | But arguments against imprisonment for debt had been advanced in the economic literature as early as the 1670s; surely at least some of the energy for reform could have developed as merchants and retailers became increasingly aware that imprisonment for debt impeded the correct functioning of credit rather than enabling it. | | | Finn correctly identifies the notion of an individual whose economic activities privileged communal goals--however that community was defined--over personal fulfillment as one of the crucial components of a moral as opposed to a market economy. | | | Finn's analysis of credit and debt in the imaginative and autobiographical literature of the period reveals conceptions of the individual, society, and the market that differ radically from, even oppose, those argued for in contemporaneous economic literature. |

| | Otherwise the need to keep all human labor busy with paid work will make sustainable economics impossible. | | | As we might have expected, now that we have machines we don't need everyone's full labor, but the existence of surplus labor has been obscured because we have been able to consume and waste enough to keep most workers busy, so far. | | | Without the use of demand stimulation, war, and other methods of increasing waste, there will be a shortage of paid work in any efficient automated economy. |

| | Cigarette excise tax hikes, which result in higher cigarette prices, are one possible tool to discourage smoking. | | | Hence, the decision to quit depends not only on the cost of cigarettes but also on the cost of techniques that enable smokers to quit. | | | While I report here on a good deal of new research in this important area, I also summarize studies focusing on the economics of obesity; the roles of such basic economic forces as years of formal schooling completed, unemployment, and welfare reform in health outcomes; and the determinants of the cost of medical care. |
