Firm efficiency consists of two components: technical efficiency, which simply reflects the ability of a firm to obtain maximal output from a given set of inputs, and allocative efficiency, which basically reflects the ability of a firm to use the inputs in optimal proportions, given their respective prices and the production technology, (Farrell, 1957).
