Abstract: This paper discusses spatial variations of industrial land in revenues in Tianjin. The closer the industrial land to the central zone, the more the revenues can be obtained. The key factors that affect the spatial variations in revenues, such as differential rent Ⅰ, differential rent Ⅱ. additional capital investments or labor inputs. are pointed out. Then the paper employs mathematical models to analyze how these factors contribute to the spatial variations separately. The results show that the contribution of differential rent Ⅰ to the spatial variations in revenues is 46. 5%. that of differential rent Ⅱ is 17. 4%. that of additional capital investment is 25. 02%, that of additional labor input is 10.34%, and that of other factors is only 0. 98%. Finally, it is proved that the spatial variations of industrial land in revenues are mainly resulted from the difference in location.

Key words: industrial land, spatial variations in revenues, differential rent Ⅰ, differential rent Ⅱ
