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?

[Short-Run Production] Suppose that a firm is producing in the short run with output given by: Q = 200.5L – 2.5L2, The firm hires labor at a wage of $25 per hour and sells the good in a competitive market at P = $50 per unit. Find the firm’s optimal use of labor and associated level of output. (For extra practice, what is the firm’s associated profit?) I have already finished and went to check my work on Chegg and...

In the short run, a perfectly competitive firm produces output using capital services (a fixed input) and labour services (a variable input). At its profit-maximizing level of output, the marginal product of labour is equal to the average product of labour. a. What is the relationship between this firm's average variable cost and its marginal cost? O Average variable cost is higher than marginal cost O Average variable cost equals marginal cost O Average variable cost is less than marginal...

Consider a two input firm which faces an aggregate technology for perfect compliments of y=min(3x1,x2). a. Plot isoquants for y=3,6 and 9 b. What are the returns of scale for this production function? c. For all possible prices on output, p, and on inputs, w1 and w2, are their price combinations for which a profit maximizing firm would not be able to select a price maximizing quantity (or at least one greater than 0)? Give a restriction on prices such...
