Answer
The correct answer is (c) 90 units of output.
Marginal Product of labor is the additional output produced when we hire one additional unit of labor.
Mathematically, MP(L) = TP(L) - TP(L - 1)
where MP(L) = Marginal product of Lth unit of labor, TP(L) = Total Product when L units of worker are hired
Thus, Marginal product of 4th unit of Labor = MP(4) and using above formula we have :
Marginal product of 4th unit of Labor = MP(4) = TP(4) - TP(3).
Using above table we have :
Marginal product of 4th unit of Labor = MP(4) = TP(4) - TP(3) = 320 - 230 = 90
Hence, Marginal product of fourth unit of labor = 90 units of output.
Hence, the correct answer is (c) 90 units of output.
