Equilibrium among Spatially Separated Markets: Solution by Electric Analogue
Stephen Enke
Abstract
A simple electric circuit is described that determines the equilibrium prices and quantities that will result in a static model when a number of interdependent trading units stand ready to buy or sell a homogeneous good, according to known trading functions, and when there are significant freight costs per unit between each trading unit and every other. This circuit is compared as a method of solution with digital computers and electronic differential analyzers. The importance of these possibilities to traditional value theory is indicated.
