Some properties of a production function

Author

Listed:
  • Constantin Chilarescu

Abstract

We examine the new production function developed by Chilarescu, and prove that under certain restrictions, the values of the elasticity can also be less than one. We will also prove that under certain restrictions on the parameters, the production function satisfies the Inada conditions.
