Duke Micro Econ Chapter 13

Animated and verbal exploration of short run and long run costs and how these affect firm behavior. We explore how the short run supply curve is derived from the marginal cost curve and long run supply from the long run marginal cost curve. The various ways in which cost curves shift are examined and this then leads to a more complete consideration of the difference between short run and long run supply.

We then examine short run and long run changes in input demand when factor prices change.
