At the point where diminishing returns (diminishing returns occurs when a unit increase in the variable input causes the total product to fall) begins, marginal product of labor is 0. It means total product can't be increased further with additional workers.
Answer: option C

If total output is 40 units when 4 workers are employed and 48 units when 5 workers are employed, then: a average product is 10 units when 4 workers are employed. b. the marginal product of the 5th worker is 8 units. c. average product must be falling because the marginal product of the 5th worker is lower than the average product for 4 workers. all of the above are true.

Suppose the minimum wage is increased. Imagine a firm that produces its output with minimum wage workers and capital. Further suppose it must produce the same level of output both before and after the minimum wage increases. Use the following two statements to answer this question: I. The greater is the elasticity of substitution of labor for capital, the larger will be the number of minimum wage workers who lose their jobs. II. The cost of producing the same level...

Assume labor and machines are used in the production of an output. The marginal product of the last worker hired was 175 units a day and the marginal product of the last machine employed was 850 units a day. The wage to hire a worker for a day is $100 while the cost to employ the machine for a day was $400. Assuming perfect competition what would you recommend the firm do to become more efficient?
