A classic case of economics

One day, a Wall Street businessman found the old man and said to him, "Dear old man, I want to take your little son to work in the city."

The old man shouted angrily, "no, absolutely not." Get out! "

The man is not angry: "If I find a date for your son in the city, is it okay?"

The old man opened his eyes wide: "No, get out!"

The man went on to say, "What if the object I find for your son, that is, your future daughter-in-law, is Rockefeller's daughter?" The old man thought and thought, and was finally persuaded to let his son be Rockefeller's son-in-law.

So this man took the old man's son.

A few days later, the man found Rockefeller, the richest man in the United States and the oil king, and said to him, "Dear Mr. Rockefeller, I want to find someone for your daughter."

Rockefeller was as angry as the old man: "Get out!"

The man added, "If the person I am looking for for your daughter, that is, your future son-in-law, is the vice president of the World Bank, is that all right?" Rockefeller thought for a long time and agreed.

A few days later, the man found the president of the World Bank and said to him, "Dear Mr. President, you should appoint a vice president at once!" " "

Mr. President shook his head and said, "Impossible, there are so many vice presidents here. Why should I appoint a vice president?"

If this man is Rockefeller's son-in-law, can he be your vice president? Of course, the President of the World Bank was ecstatic.

Analysis of a Classical Economics Case

Tan hongyi

In the book "Research on the Mathematical Principles of Wealth" published by French economist Augustine in 1838, the first chapter quoted a very classic case: there was a publisher who had a number of excellent books that could not be sold. He destroyed two-thirds of the total, and made more profit from the remaining one-third than the whole printing plan.

Augustine pointed out that a book will be sold at 60 francs each 1000 copies, which is much easier than selling 3,000 copies at 20 francs each. (And can earn more value-Tan Hongyi's analysis)

The exchange value of an article must be different from its use value. Exchange value can better reflect how much wealth an item has. Commercial circulation is a medium and a measuring tool to reflect the value of commodities.

In his works, Augustine focuses on the dialectical relationship between exchange value and value. In this article, I will try to explain some ideas about how to make effective use of commercial circulation to make profits.

Augustine tells in the book that if there are only 50 rare books left, a book can be sold for 500 francs through auction, while if the publishing house reprints 1000, the price of this book can only be 5 francs. 1050 album can be sold for 5250 francs, with a loss of 9750 francs.

A British historian named acton (1834- 1902) told a story about sharing porridge, which can make people engaged in business management have some perceptual knowledge.

A small group of seven people, everyone is ordinary and equal. They have no heart for disaster, but they are selfish. They want to make a system to solve the problem of eating every day in a non-violent way-sharing a pot of porridge, but there is no scale and no graduated container.

Everyone tried different methods, played their intelligence, played a lot of games and formed an increasingly perfect system. Generally speaking, there are mainly the following types:

System 1: Designate a special person to share porridge. It was soon discovered that this person gave himself the most porridge. So another person changed, and the result was always that the porridge in the bowl was the best. Acton concluded that power can lead to corruption; Absolute power is absolute corruption.

System 2: everyone takes turns hosting porridge sharing, one person for one day. This is tantamount to acknowledging the right of individuals to share porridge for themselves, and at the same time giving everyone the opportunity to share more porridge for themselves. Although seemingly equal, everyone has only one day a week to eat, and there is still surplus, and the rest are hungry for six days. Everyone thinks that this method has caused a waste of resources.

System 3: Everyone elects a trustworthy person to host the porridge sharing. At first, a person with excellent moral character could share porridge fairly, but soon he began to share more for himself and flatterers. We should not let it degenerate and corrupt, but find new ideas.

System 4: Elect porridge committee and supervisory committee to form supervision and restriction. Basically, it is fair, but because the supervisory Committee often puts forward various motions, the porridge-sharing Committee advocates that it will be cold by the time the porridge is divided equally. It can be seen that if the efficiency of the system is not high, it is necessary to eat cold porridge, which will affect the purpose we want to achieve when formulating the system.
