Capacity Utilization Under Regulatory Constraints

The Review of Economics and Statistics, 1993
This paper presents a methodology for predicting the effect of quota-type regulatory constraints on capacity utilization for a multiproduct profit-maximizing firm. The approach builds on recent advances in the use of virtual prices to model the effects of rationing. This allows the effects of regulatory constraints to be examined ex ante. The methodol-

Measuring Fleet Capacity and Capacity Utilization

Canadian Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences, 1990
Fishing capacity measures the capability to catch fish. Capacity utilization is the actual effectiveness in catching fish; the ratio of catch to capacity. The factors comprising a fleet's capacity are the number and size of vessels, the technical efficiency of those vessels, and the time commitment of fishermen.

The Utilization of Earning Capacity

The Review of Economics and Statistics, 1979
Note: ME = Median, M = Mean, S.D. = Standard Deviation of the distributions of the estimated parameters, respectively. The parentheses contain the corresponding statistics for the distributions of the t-values, "JEP S = as; ?lEP X/X = ax */logsoe = elasticity of EP with respect to X at X, where X = any explanatory variable in equation (I) other than ...

Multi‐Output, Nonfrontier Primal Measures of Capacity and Capacity Utilization

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, 2004
This article implements an econometric approach for generating primal capacity output and utilization measures for fisheries. In situations where regulatory, environmental, and resource conditions affect catch levels but are not independently identified in the data, frontier‐based capacity models may interpret such impacts as production inefficiency ...

On the Measurement of Capacity Utilization

The Journal of Industrial Economics, 1989
Capacity utilization is usually defined as the ratio of actual output to the output corresponding to (1) the minimum point on the short-run average total cost curve, and (2) the point of tangency between the long-run average total cost and short-run average total cost curves.

Building Utility Partnerships and Capacity

Journal AWWA, 2010
This article discusses water operator partnerships, defined in the article as any simple or structured partnership that has the goal of capacity‐building on a not‐for‐profit basis with the overarching aim of improving and extending basic water and sanitation services to all consumers. The article discusses several fundamental advantages of the operator

Growth without normal capacity utilization

The European Journal of the History of Economic Thought, 2003
Within the demand-led approach to growth, the long-period tendencies of quantities cannot be effectively studied through theoretical positions entailing normal utilization of capacity. Whether in the form of constant or of average normal utilization, this assumption contradicts the supposed autonomy of aggregate demand. Analysis of the operation of the

Productivity and Capacity Utilization

1989
Productivity is a relatively new word to distribution managers and customer service managers alike. The landmark National Council of Physical Distribution Management study* on productivity, issued in 1978, and updated in 1983, reflects the importance this subject is achieving in management circles. The work of consultant Herbert W.

Functional Capacity and Residual Functional Capacity and Their Utility in Measuring Work Capacity

The Clinical Journal of Pain, 1993
The pain physician is often asked to establish the medical impairment of the chronic pain patient (CPP) and from that determination ascertain the work capacity of the CPP. Functional capacity (FC) testing has recently been introduced as a more objective and accurate way of facilitating the determination of work capacity.
