Abstract

The purpose of this note is to show results of allocative inefficiency costs associated with a Cobb-Douglas technology. Under a two-input-single-output Cobb-Douglas production function, the cost implication of non-optimal input use is evaluated for a wide range of input distortions. Upper bound for inefficiency costs are also established without requiring knowledge of the parameters of the production function.
