Pure joint production
Article Abstract:
B. Schefold asserted in his 1989 book that the laws in single-product systems also apply in joint production. However, further examination reveals that single-product systems laws of w-r trade-off, uniqueness of the dominant technique, wage maximization property, and convergence of the algorithm do not apply in joint production. In addition, the square result derived by Schefold in his single-product system model is not derived in joint production since this type of economy is more complex as there are more commodities and processes involved.

The theory of firm economics, which is applied to most industrial organizations and in strategic management endeavors, has already dominated such fields as diversification. TCE, originally applied to theory of the firm, continues to exhibit substantial unresolved issues despite some significant progress.
