On observe des rendements décroissants lorsque la quantité utilisée de certains facteurs est accrue et celle d'autres facteurs maintenue constante, de sorte que l'on bouleverse les proportions dans lesquelles s'effectue la combinaison des facteurs. Les rendements d'échelle sont dus à l'augmentation de tous les facteurs, la combinaison optimale de ces facteurs étant conservée. 3, record 1, French, - rendement%20d%27%C3%A9chelle
