单词 constant elasticity of substitution
释义
constant elasticity of substitution

Economics
  • The property of production or utility functions such that the ratio between proportional changes in relative prices and proportional changes in relative quantities is always the same. A CES function may be written

    y=k[δ(x1)ρ+[1-δ](x2)ρ]1/ρ

    where y is output or utility, x1 and x2 are inputs, and k is a constant. The ratio of proportional changes in relative quantities to proportional change in relative prices is the elasticity of substitution, σ‎ = 1/(1 − ρ‎); if 1 > ρ‎ > 0, then σ‎ > 1 and the goods are good substitutes; if ρ‎ < 0, then σ‎ < 1 and the goods are poor substitutes. The goods are perfect substitutes if ρ‎ = 1 (‘infinitely large’ elasticity of substitution). The Cobb–Douglas function is the limiting case corresponding to ρ‎ = 0; in this case σ‎ = 1.
