1) Profit/unit output (70)
7 = [S — AC - sd| - r(d)/Q
3 — sale prIce/unIf
AC = average cost (inc capital)
s = shipping cost to port
d = distance to port
r(d)= firm rent per acre
Q = units of output per acre
In equilibrium profits must be fixed across
locations
Trang 8EL MIT Center for Real Estate
2) Equal profit rent function
r{d)=[S —-AC—sd- 7] *Q 3) Slope of firm rent function:
dr, dd = -s*Q 4) Historic changes in s, Q
- From carts to water to rail to truck
- from 6 story lofts to single story Sheds

Modern Industrial Location
Why do industries locate:
- Next to Highways
- Next to Airports or seaports
- On land that is recycled, wet, or marginal But also:
- In areas already developed
- Near to population 2
[Shukla-Waddell, Struyk-James]

If residential rents look like this — then where do
industrial properties locate?
