Study Notes

The Long Run in Economics

In economics, the long run is a period of time where all inputs of production can be adjusted.
This includes both fixed inputs (like capital) and variable inputs (like labor).
The length of the long run is determined by how long it takes for a business to adjust all of its inputs.
In contrast, the short run is when at least one input is fixed, and the business can only adjust variable inputs.
Factors that contribute to the length of the long run include the nature of the industry, the technology used, legal restrictions and more.
