Explain graphically how isoquant-isocost analysis can be used to derive long-run labor demand curve. Distinguish between the substitution and output effects. Isoquant: Isoquant shows the relationship between two or more inputs th...
What Is Isoquant and Isocost? Both isocosts and isoquants are curves plotted on a graph. Used by producers and manufacturers, they display the best interplay of two factors that will result in the maximum output at minimum cost. An isoquant shows all combinations of factors that produce a ...

For a function f(x), the graph or contour f(x) = C, where C is a constant, is called an isoquant. If f(x) is a profit (cost) function, then the isoquant is termed an isoprofit (isocost) line.This is a preview of subscription content, log in via an institution to check ...
The first example of isoquant map showed in the adjacent graph is the most common representation. It shows four convex isoquants (green), showing each curve what amount of capital K the producer can stop applying when increasing the amount of labour L, while maintaining the quantity of output...
