9781332021741: Marginal Utility and Value

Synopsis

This book revisits economics regarding the production and value of goods within society. Rather than viewing value as a result of subjective utility, as some economic theories posit, the author argues that cost is the primary factor that sets the value of a good and that defining a good's cost through subjective value leads to faulty conclusions. The book critiques this alternative theory's approach to cost and utility and challenges the widely held concept that value determines the cost of production. Instead, this book asserts that the cost of production is what truly determines the value of commodities.
