Production Function Theory

Production Function Theory describes how businesses convert inputs—such as labor, raw materials, and capital—into outputs, like goods or services. It shows the relationship between the quantity of inputs used and the amount of output produced, helping to understand efficiency and productivity. The theory helps businesses determine the best way to combine resources to maximize output while minimizing costs. It also explains concepts like increasing, constant, and decreasing returns to scale, illustrating how output changes as input levels change. Overall, it provides a structured way to analyze and optimize the production process for economic decision-making.
