What is Theory Of The Firm?
Enterprise theory studies the behavior of enterprises in the process of putting in production factors at a certain price to provide products. In the last 25 years of the 19th century, the production function concept gave rise to the great development of Cournot's profit maximization hypothesis, and formed a set of rich theories on input demand and output supply, namely, corporate theory. The scholars who have made important contributions to this are Walra, P. Wicksteed, K. WickseU, and J. Clark. For the first time, H. Hotelling summarized the research results of corporate theory. [1]
