Abstract

Cet Article Adapte la Theorie de L'investissement En Situation de Certitude au Cas de la Firme Extractive. on Distingue Demandes Ex Ante et Demandes Ex Post Auxquelles Est Consacre L'essentiel de L'article. Comme les Contraintes Qui Sont Presentes Ex Post Affectent les Decisions Ex Ante, on Effectue un Test de L'hypothese "Putty-Clay" a Partir de L'etude Empirique de la Demande Ex Ante de Capital Dans des Mines de Metaux Non Ferreux. L'hypothese N'est Pas Rejetee. En Revanche, L'hypothese "Clay-Clay" Est Largement Rejetee, la Demande de Capital Reagissant a la Fois aux Prix et aux Donnees Geologiques. Outre Sa Capacite de Tenir Compte de la Contrainte D'epuisement a Laquelle Sont Confrontees les Firmes Extractives, Ce Modele Se Distingue de la Plupart des Modeles D'investissement Traditionnels En Ce Qu'on N'y Traite Pas la Production Ou le Stock Initial de Capital Comme Exogenes Mais Comme Resultat de Decisions de Nature Economique Endogenes au Modele.
