Homework Answers
| Workers | Total product (TP) | Marginal product (MP)= (Change in TP) |
| 8 | 100 | - |
| 9 | 220 | 120 |
| 10 | 400 | 180 |
| 11 | 650 | 250 |
| 12 | 850 | 200 |
| 13 | 1000 | 150 |
Beginning with the 11th worker marginal production begin to decline. Because after 11 workers , MP is declining as we can see in the table above. Hence,option(D) is correct.
