The subject of research in this paper is to analyze how the role of the “dispositive factor” in Erich Gutenberg’s theory of the firm should be interpreted in inventory-controlled production systems.
The new institutional economics approach is applied to reveal interrelations and differences regarding the “dispositive” tasks in the neoclassical and in the modern production system design.
The results show that Gutenberg’s theory is still valid to some extent but that there is also need for some extensions following fundamental economic developments.
