Technological improvement reduces production costs.

INSUFFICIENT LEANING
Recorded sources

Is it true that technological improvement reduces production costs?
Unclear. Several sources give individual cases where a technological change lowered costs: relighting a school, a refinery steam proposal, a grain-modernization simulation, RFID adoption, and a zeolite filler. None states the general rule that technological improvement reduces production costs; the textbook lines merely assume it for a wheat-market example.
