西方经济学-名词解释

一名词解释 1)机会成本 指任何决策,必须做出一定的选择,被舍弃掉的选项中的最高价值者即是这次决策的机会成本。机会成本对商业公司来说,可以是利用一定的时间或资源生产一种商品时,而失去的利用这些资源生产其他最佳替代品的机会就是机会成本。 在生活中,有些机会成本是可以用货币来进行衡量的。例如农民在获得更多土地时,如果选择养猪就不能选择养鸡,养猪的机会成本就是放弃养鸡的收益。但有些机会成本往往无法用货币衡量,例如,在图书馆看书学习还是享受电视剧带来的快乐之间进行选择。 2)正确的定价观点: 影响利润的三要素为:销量、价格和成本。 三要素关系如下:利润=销售量×价格-成本 高明定价者会将“价值创造”与定价及“价值萃取”结合起来,而且了解各利润要素之间的关系。他们深知产品对顾客的价值以及细分市场的变化,善于思考产业演变的可能趋势,并能预知当前的行为将如何影响未来的价格走势。高明定价者会将定价作为企业的重中之重,相信定价和其他利润一样,是可以进行有效管理的,而且有着极强的杠杆作用。 3)边际成本&边际利益 边际成本意思是每增加一单位的产品与所要耗用的成本(料、工、费)。 边际利益是指在一定时间内增加单位产品所带来的利润的增量,也就是对一个产品的生产增加一个单位的资金投入所引起的收益的变化量。它大体可以这样理解,即一个市场中的经济实体为追求最大的利润,多次进行扩大生产,每一次投资所产生的效益都会与上一次投资产生的效益之间要有一个差,这个差就是边际效益。 用简单的例子来说明最容易理解这个概念了,西方经济学里面也是这样说明的:你肚子很饿了,你只有钱可以买5 个馒头吃。第一个馒头的边际效益最大,因为你那时候最饿,最需要,你多花一点钱也愿意买;第二个的边际效益就递减了,因为有1 个馒头进肚了...不是那 么饿了。第五个的边际效益最小,因为那个时候你几乎已经快饱了,馒头如果卖的贵的话,你一定不会买了。每支出1 个馒头的价钱产生的效益,也就是你感觉花钱买来的价值。从第一个向最后一个递减!这就是边际效益了。 4)价格对利润的影响 涨价和降价有着很强的杠杆作用。看似很少的降价可能对单位贡献毛收益带来很大的负面影响,需要大大增加销量才能获得降价前的利润。而小幅涨价则可能给单位贡献毛收益带来很大的正面影响,在大大降低销售量的情况下,已然可以保持涨价前的利润水平。以近期航空公司如火如荼价格战为例:某公司上海—深圳航线,在价格战前(4 月),平均票价为868 元,销售收入为2604 万元;价格战后(5 月),平均票价为468 元,销售收入为1572 万元。 如上图,由于航空业变动成本较低,固定成本较高,这两个月对比中,运力没有变化,从而

国际经济学名词解释

国际经济学复习 相对价格:商品之间价格关系的动态反映,专指两种或多种商品之间由供给与需求作用所形成的价格比例关系。在国际贸易中所交换的商品价格之间的比例关系。它体现交换双方的贸易利益。 比较优势:所谓比较优势是指一国在绝对优势基础上的相对较大的优势,在绝对劣势基础上的相对较少的劣势。比较优势主张以各国生产成本或相对差异为基础进行专业化分工,并通过国家贸易获得利益的一种国际贸易理论。比较优势实际上取决于劳动生产率的相对水平。一国在劳动生产率相对较高的部门或产品上具有比较优势。 边际替代率:在保持同等效用水平的条件下,消费者增加一单位某种商品的消费可以代替的另一种商品的消费量。它是无差异曲线的斜率。通常,由于生产过程中投入的生产要素是不完全替代的,随着一种生产要素数量的增加,该要素对另外一种要素的边际替代率是递减的。 边际技术替代率:在维持产量水平不变的条件下,增加一单位某种生产要素投入量时所减少的另一种要素的投入量,在只有两种要素劳动L和资本K 的情况下,边际技术替代率MRTS可以记做:MRTSLK=-△K/△L 机会成本:机会成本是指在一国资源达到充分利用时,要增加某一产品的生产,必须放弃另一种产品生产的数量。 边际成本:每一单位新增生产的产品(或者购买的产品)带来到总成本的增量。 规模经济:由于生产专业化水平的提高等原因,使企业的单位成本下降,从而形成企业的长期平均成本随着产量的增加而递减的经济。 倾销:在不同国家市场间进行的一种价格歧视行为。它是指出口商以低于本国国内价格或成本的价格向国外销售商品的行为。构成依据:1进口国生产同类型产品的企业是否受到低价进口品的冲击,以致其市场份额明显减少。2进口国生产同类型产品的企业的利润水平是否明显降低。3在低价进口品的冲击下,进口国的同类产业是否难以建立起来。持续性/掠夺性 最佳关税:使本国福利达到最大的关税水平。确定条件:进口国由征收关税所引起的额外损失(边际损失)与额外收益(边际收益)相等。 幼稚产业:某种由于技术经验不足、劳动生产率低下、产品成本高于世界市场价格,因而无法与国外产业竞争,但在关税、补贴等保护措施下继续生产一段时间,经过一段时间的生产能够在自由贸易条件下获利,达到其他国家水平而自立,形成比较优势并良性发展的产业。某一产业处于发展初期,基础和竞争力薄弱但经过适度保护能够发展成为具有潜在比较优势的新兴产业。 贸易创造:国际贸易理论与实践中指两个或两个以上国家间结成关税同盟后,因取消关税降低了贸易商品的价格,使产品从成本较高的国内生产转向成本较低的贸易对象国生产,本国从贸易对象国进口。由于国际经济一体化组织成员国之间相互取消了关税和与关税具有同等效力的其他措施,造成了他们相互之间贸易规模的扩大和福利水平的提高。贸易转移:两个或两个以上国家间的关税同盟建立后,成员国的部分进口商品将从低成本供应国(非成员国)转向高成本供应国(成员国)。对进口国是福利损失。 国际收支:在一定时期内(通常为一年)一国居民与世界其他国家居民之间的全部经济交易的系统记录。主要目的:使政府当局了解本国(地区)的对外经济交往状况,从而为制定相应的经济管理政策提供信息和依据。 马歇尔-勒纳条件:表明如果一国处于贸易逆差中,即Vx1(Dx,DM分别代表出口和进口的需求弹性)。公式表述为ηx+ηm>1,这一条件表明,在进出口商品的供给弹性趋于无穷大的条件下,如果进出口商品的需求弹性之和大于1,则货币贬值就能起到改善国际收支的作用。 里昂惕夫之谜:美国经济学家里昂惕夫利用1947年美国的投入——产出表,测算了美国进出口商品的要素含量。在测算之前,他推断与世界其他国家相比,美国应是资本丰富的国家,但结果却证明了美国出口劳动密集型商品,进口资本密集型商品,这一结果与H-0理论相反。 特里芬难题:为了满足世界经济和贸易的发展对美元需求的不断增长,美国必须保持长期的国际收支逆差,以使美元持续流入外国,但是这又必然导致各国对美元清偿能力信心下降;如果美国维持国际收支平衡,稳定美元币值,又不能满足国际经济交易对美元的需求,世界经济将陷入通货紧缩。 套期保值:交易者配合在现货市场的买卖,在期货市场买进或卖出与现货市场交易品种、数量相同,

国际经济学名词解释重点

国际经济学名词解释重点(1) 绝对优势:如果一国在某种产品生产上的劳动生产率高于另一国,或在劳动成本上低于另一国,则认为该国在该产品生产上具有绝对优势。绝对优势主张以各国生产成本的绝对差异为基础进行国际专业化分工,并通过国际贸易获得利益的一种国际贸易理论。 比较优势:所谓比较优势是指一国在绝对优势基础上的相对较大的优势,在绝对劣势基础上的相对较少的劣势。比较优势主张以各国生产成本或相对差异为基础进行专业化分工,并通过国家贸易获得利益的一种国际贸易理论。 完全专业化:各国根据比较优势原理进行专业化分工,在机会成本不变的情况下,每一国只生产其具有比较优势的产品,即全世界对某种产品的需求完全由具有比较优势的国家来生产。 贸易三角:贸易三角是衡量贸易利益的重要工具,主要由均衡时的国家贸易条件、一国的出口量和进口量三条线围成,反映一国的出口在均衡的国际贸易条件下,能够换回多少进口。 不完全专业化:各国根据比较优势原理进行专业化分工,在机会成本递增的情况下,各国将只部分生产其具有比较优势的产品并出口,同时也要生产其不具有比较优势的商品,这是因为随着某种产量的增加,机会成本呈现递增态势,因此原来在该产量上具有比较优势的国家会因为专业化生产而导致比较优势的逐渐丧失。 重商主义:重商主义主要兴盛于15世纪到18世纪中叶,认为货币是财富的唯一形式,因此主张采取奖出罚入的政策,主张取消进口

以避免本国贵金属的流失,鼓励出口以增加贵金属的流入。重商主义反映了资本原始积累时期,商业资本家对货币或贵金属的认识。 国际贸易:通常从狭义上讲,国际贸易指商品(或货物)的跨国流动,而在广义上,国际贸易既包括商品贸易也包括要素贸易。 生产可能性边界:它表示在一定的技术条件下,一国的全部资源所能生产的各种物品或者劳务的最大产量。 边际技术替代率:在维持产量水平不变的条件下,增加一单位某种生产要素投入量时所减少的另一种要素的投入量,在只有两种要素劳动L和资本K的情况下,边际技术替代率MRTS可以记做:MRTSLK=-△K/△L 等产量曲线上某一点的边际技术替代率就是等产量曲线在该点斜率的绝对值,此外,边际技术替代率还可以表示为两要素的边际产量之比。对于单一厂商来说,均衡时,即厂商达到利润最大化时,要素的边际替代率等于要素价格之比,MRTS=w/r。 机会成本:机会成本是指在一国资源达到充分利用时,要增加某一产品的生产,必须放弃另一种产品生产的数量。一般情况下,生产中的机会成本包括:机会成本递增,机会成本不变和机会成本递减三种情况。 当生产可能性边界向外凸/凹向原点时,机会成本递增;当生产可能性边界为直线时,机会成本不变,根据前面的假设,机会成本用-△Y/△X来表示。
