Question 2

Suppose RioTintoAlcan is considering the construction of a new aluminum smelter in Northern Quebec, the operation of which requires a great deal of electricity. Suppose also that the price of electricity is predicted to rise significantly in the near future. As a result, the firm decides to build a plant using existing technology that is more expensive but uses less electricity per tonne of aluminum produced. This behaviour is an example of

◦ long-run economies of scale.
◦ innovation away from changes in factor prices.
◦ short-run profit maximization.
