THE MOSES‐PREDOHL PULL AND THE LOCATION DECISION OF THE FIRM*
利用两阶段方法和包络定理，研究了摩西-普雷多尔拉力在企业成本最小化选址理论中的作用，并证明该拉力在包络定理下为零，从而指出Bossert和Buhl（1986）对Kusumoto（1984,1985）的断言是错误的。
ABSTRACT This paper exploits the two‐stage approach and the envelope theorem to examine the role of the Moses‐Predhol pull in the cost‐minimizing location theory of the firm. It shows that the two‐stage approach introduces the Moses‐Predohl pull into the first‐order conditions. The Moses‐Predohl pull is shown to be equal to zero through the envelope theorem. These results show why the assertions of Bossert and Buhl (1986) concerning Kusumoto (1984,1985) are incorrect.
