Asset Indivisibility and Investment Planning: An Application of Linear Programming

Peter J. Barry

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, 1972, vol. 54, issue 2, 255-259

Abstract: A multi-period linear programming model is used to evaluate the effect of investments in indivisible land units on various measures of firm growth. Complete evaluation is found to depend upon the degree of asset indivisibility, the manager's planning horizon, and on the chosen financial or physical measures of growth.
