Abstract
The expanding car industry has revealed an increase in the use of robots and machines together with a decrease in labor. This phenomenon refocuses attention on the possible existence of labor as an inferior input with robots as rival technical alternatives. In our paper we suggest a specific production function that allows for inferior inputs. We verify the general conditions that have been developed in past research.
