William Stanley Jevons bol anglický logik, metodológ, ekonóm, priekopník matematických metod v ekonómii, spolutvorca teorie hraničnej užitočnosti, tvorca prvého logického stroja.

- vysvetlil teóriu hraničnej užitočnosti pomocou matematických metód

- hran. užitočnost = pomer medzi prírastkom užitočnosti a veľkosťou poslednej jednotky spotrebúvaného statku Δ U/ Δ x

závery:

1. ak má daný statok dva možné spôsoby použitia kt. môže uspokojiť dve rôzne potreby, Δu1/ Δ x = Δu2/ Δ y , max. uspokojenie svojich potrieb dosiahne vtedy, keď mu posledné prírastky pri oboch spôsoboch použitia poskytnú rovnakú užitočnosť

2. pri naturálnej výmene dvoch statkov medzi dvoma osobami dosiahnu vymieňajúce si osoby maximalizáciu svojej užitočnosti vtedy, ak sa výmenný pomer dvoch statkov rovná obrátenému pomeru ich hraničných užitočností

3. pri výmene s použitím peňazí bude racionálny spotrebiteľ max. svoje uspokojenie vtedy, keď sa pomer medzi hraničnými užitočnosťami dvoch statkov bude rovnať pomeru cien – zákon proporcionality hraničných užitočností s cenami statkov

4. zákon vážených hran. užitočností – pri výmene všetkých tovarov s použitím peňazí medzi všetkými spotrebiteľmi rovnováha výmeny nastáva vtedy, keď sa pomer medzi hran. užitočnosťami statkov a ich cenami bude navzájom rovnať Wikipedia

“Logic is not only an exact science, but is the most simple and elementary of all sciences; it ought therefore undoubtedly to find some place in every course of education.”

“One of the most important axioms is, that as the quantity of any commodity, for instance, plain food, which a man has to consume, increases, so the utility or benefit derived from the last portion used decreases in degree. The decrease in enjoyment between the beginning and the end of a meal may be taken as an example.”

“Among minor alterations, I may mention the substitution for the name political economy of the single convenient term economics. I cannot help thinking that it would be well to discard, as quickly as possible, the old troublesome double-worded name of our science.”

“One of the most important axioms is, that as the quantity of any commodity, for instance, plain food, which a man has to consume, increases, so the utility or benefit derived from the last portion used decreases in degree. The decrease in enjoyment between the beginning and the end of a meal may be taken as an example. And I assume that on an average, the ratio of utility is some continuous mathematical function of the quantity of commodity. This law of utility has, in fact, always been assumed by political economists under the more complex form and name of the Law of Supply and Demand. But once fairly stated in its simple form, it opens up the whole of the subject.”
