Abstract
The production function concept is introduced. Maximizing the surplus under the imperfect competition is the point of departure for constructing a system of equations explaining the demand for production factors, producer prices and wages.
The demand for fixed capital function is transferred into the demand for investment function. The demand for employment is linked to the demand for working hours. The producer prices depend on unit costs of fabrication and on profits reacting to the demand gap. Real wages are result of negotiations between entrepreneurs and employees depend on the unemployment rate.
Potential productions depends on total factor productivity, being affected by the domestic and foreign cumulative R&D and by human capital. The impact of knowledge capital is shown.
