Abstract
The "short-run approach" calculates long-run producer optima and general equilibria bybuilding on short-run solutions to the producer's profit maximization problem and onprofit-based valuation of the fixed inputs. We outline this method and illustrate it on anexample of peak-load pricing.general equilibrium, fixed-input valuation, nondifferentiable joint costs, Wong-Viner Envelope Theorem, peak-load pricing
