... The model of consumer choice can be used to study the allocation of time between work and leisure. The two “goods” are leisure and income—where income represents all other goods. Lisa buys leisure by not supplying labor and by forgoing income. So the “price” of leisure is the wage rate forgone. © 20 ...

... When a firm’s average-total-cost curve continually declines, the firm has what is called a natural monopoly. In this case, when production is divided among more firms, each firm produces less, and average total cost rises. As a result, a single firm can produce any given amount at the least cost © 2 ...
