1. set of equations2. variables3. relevant mathematical operations4. derive a set of conclusions which
logically follow from those assumptions
Ingredients of a mathematical model

Variables, constants and parameters
Variable: something whose magnitude can change, something that can take on different values ( price, profit, revenue, cost, national income, consumption, investment, imports, exports, and so on). Must be represented by a symbol: P, , R.
Economic model can be solved to give us the solution values of a certain set of variables. Endogenous variables: variables whose
solution values we seek Exogenous variables: originates from
without.

Variables, constants and parameters
Constant: magnitude that does not change
Coefficient: a constant joined to a variable. eg. 7P ( a constant that is a variable)
Parameter: different values can be assigned to a parameter. Normally represented by symbols such as a, b, c, or greek ,,

Equations and Identities
Definitional equation: sets up an identity between two alternative expressions that have exactly the same meaning.
= R-C. Behavioral equation: specifies the manner
in which a variable behaves in response to changes in other variables.
may involve human behavior : C = 1000 + .75 Y
may involve non-human behavior: Q = AX10.5
X20.5

Equations and Identities
Equilibrium Conditions- an equation that describes the prerequisite for the attainment of equilibrium:
Qd =QsS =I
