Popis: The previous chapter treated capital stock as a given constraint in the routine decision making of the firm. For a treatment of the firm’s decisions in the longer run capital formation needs to be endogenized. In the first place, the firm's capital stock is subject to technical deterioration which has to be compensated by replacement investment in order to maintain capacity. In the second place, the firm must be continuously aware of its market prospects and adjust its production possibilities accordingly.
