∙ 13y agoProfit maximization is pretty much just maximizing how much money you earn.
It will not necessarily affect how much wealth you gain.
Wealth maximization affects how much money you have total.
It will not necessarily affect how much you earn.

∙ 13y agoI'm going to bet some instructor made this point in class, and it's been a long time since I've been in class. But profit maximazation in my day was planning and making decisions in the Long RUN best interests of the company.
Wealth maximazation sounds more like maximizing the weal;th of the owners. But if the company is worth more than the owners' interests are correspondingly worth more and the owners are wealthier. But this wealth (money spent on new plant and equipment,) might be illiquid so, I guess you could say the company is richer but the owners are not $10,000.00 richer because a $10,000.00 in equipment is worth less if sold on the open market would be worth less, like a new car is worth less as soon as you drive it off the lot.
Suggested by someonew who didn't go to the class either.
