Modelling the long-term eects on farm net worth of investments in pasture fertilizer under constraints of family expenditure
A simple dynamic farm model is developed and used to analyse the net worth of a family farm grazing enterprise producing wool on the Northern Tablelands of New South Wales, Australia, under alternative assumptions regarding family expenses and investments in fertilizer. The linkage between family costs and expenditure on fertilizer is explored over a 25-year period highlighting the feed-back e...
متن کاملAnalysis of Production Decisions under Budget Limitations
The issue of when to intervene in the evolution of a production system is the focus of this study. The interventions take the form of changes to production depending on the current value of the products. Each change incurs a charge representing costs such as physical expansion, overtime or new hiring when production increases and costs such as severance or shut down when production decreases. T...
متن کاملProduction and financial decisions under uncertainty
We propose a model of an incomplete markets economy with production, in which the firm acts as financial innovator by issuing claims against its stock. The firm’s objective is to maximize its adjusted value, which is the sum of the market value and the shareholders’ surplus from their trades in the stock markets. If a firm maximizes its adjusted value, then its financial policy is relevant (i.e...
متن کاملLife-history evolution under a production constraint.
The recently formulated metabolic theory of ecology has profound implications for the evolution of life histories. Metabolic rate constrains the scaling of production with body mass, so that larger organisms have lower rates of production on a mass-specific basis than smaller ones. Here, we explore the implications of this constraint for life-history evolution. We show that for a range of very ...
متن کاملProduction Optimization under Uncertainty with Constraint Handling
To maximize the daily production from an oil and gas field, mathematical optimization may be used to find the optimal operating point. When optimizing, a model of the system is used to predict the outcome for different operating points. The model is, however, subject to uncertainty, e.g., the gas oil ratio estimates may be imprecise. The uncertainty is often ignored, and what is known as the ex...
