Positive Variable
   W(f) 'factor price'
   P(s) 'commodity price'
   Y(s) 'production level';

Equation
   fmkt(f)   'factor market'
   cmkt(s)   'commodity market'
   profit(s) 'zero profit';

* Factor supply (endowments) equals factor demand:
fmkt(f)..   sum(h, e(f,h)) =g= sum(s, FD(f,s)*Y(s));

* Commodity output equals commodity demand:
cmkt(s)..   Y(s) =g= sum(h, D(s,h));

* Unit cost equals market price:
profit(s).. COST(s) =g= P(s);

Parameter DL(s,h);

Model jel / fmkt.W, cmkt.P, profit.Y /;

* compute solution for this dimension problem:
W.lo(f) = 0.0001;
P.lo(s) = 0.0001;

W.l(f) = 1;
P.l(s) = 1;
Y.l(s) = 10;

* solve the reference case:
W.fx("labor") = 1;
solve jel using mcp;

$onDotL
dl(s,h) = d(s,h);
display dl;

* apply tax in test problem:
tshr("rich") = 0.4;
tshr("poor") = 1 - tshr("rich");
t("capital","mfrs") = 0.5;
solve jel using mcp;
