1. If a profit-maximizing competitive firm has constant returns to scale, then its long-run profits must be zero. True or False? Explain your answer. 2. A firm is producing output using one variable factor of production. The firm’s production function is y = 8x¹ˡ². The price of the output is $24 and the price of input is $8 per unit. How many units of the input should the firm use?

competitive firm produces output using three fixed factors and one variable factor. The firm’s short-run production function is q = 305x − 2x2, where x is the amount of the variable factor used. The price of the output is £2 per unit and the price of the variable factor is £10 per unit. In the short run, how many units of x should the firm use ?
