    Jan 22, 2015 · For example when you are talking about profit maximization starting from a profit function $\pi (q)$, the main condition for a maximum is that: $$\frac {\partial \pi} {\partial …

  2. Deriving the Euler Equation - Economics Stack Exchange

    Sep 4, 2015 · Now to get the Euler equation: If you take the derivative of that with respect to K_t+1 you will get your FOC there. (This is the FOC for the whole Lagrangian, because the …

  3. Second Order Condition - Always means second derivative?

    Apr 7, 2023 · In optimisation, does First Order Condition (FOC) always mean a condition for a max/min related to the first derivative. Similarly, is Second Order Condition (SOC), called …

  4. FOCs for profit maximization using a transformation function

    Nov 24, 2023 · Usually when you do constrained optimization under inequality constraints, you get inequalities for the FOCs as well (e.g. (5.C.2) on p. 137, where the authors study the …

  5. mathematical economics - Solving a HJB with additional …

    Jul 21, 2020 · I am trying to solve a Hamiltonian-Jacobi-Bellman equation with additional constraints on the state and control variables, but I am a bit confused on how to do that. In …
