Research Abstract |
Efficient allocation of resources has traditionally been considered under the assumption of continuity on the part of variables of the model. In this study, a condition for an efficient allocation of resources of indivisible goods, which is consistent with the maximization of utility, was investigated. This study aims at extending the applicability of market models to discrete variables, and has obtained some findings relevant to such a purpose.
