| Marginal Utility | Lloyd | Rothbard II 128 Marginal utility/Utility theory/value/Willam Forster Lloyd/Rothbard: (…) Lloyd, (…) thinks he discovers in [Adam Smith’s] Wealth of Nations inspiration for a subjective theory of value. Value, Lloyd asserts, is ‘a feeling of the mind’. It can be understood as belonging to a single object, he added, where the feeling reveals itself ‘at the margin of separation between the satisfied and unsatisfied wants’. Lloyd: Let us suppose the case of a hungry man having one ounce, and only one ounce of food at his command. To him this ounce is obviously of very great importance. Suppose him now to have two ounces. These are still of great importance; but the importance of the second is not equal to that of the single ounce. Rothbard: Similarly, Lloyd goes on, the utilities of different goods compared with one another and each of their values falls with increase in supply; so a good that may be more valuable than another in an absolute philosophic sense, in the sense of a class of the commodity, can be worth very little if its supply is abundant. Rothbard II 129 Value/Lloyd: William Lloyd was also clear that value, being subjective, could not be measured. Lloyd goes on to point out, quite correctly, that value or valuation is anterior to exchange, and that such valuations also take place in the case of an isolated Robinson Crusoe economy. RothbardVsLloyd: Unfortunately, Lloyd was so enamoured of the distinction between value and exchange, and of Smith's faulty split between use- and exchange-values, that he failed to complete the task of the theory of demand and link up marginal utility analysis with consumer demand and the determination of market pricing. >Demand, >Price, >Use value, >Value, >Value theory, >Supply, >Marginalism. |
