1. Answer: The production function
Production function shows the relationship between the quantity of physical output and the different quantities of inputs (factors of production) used in the production process.
2. Answer: All inputs are variable
In the long run, all factors of production and costs are variable. Firms have sufficient period of time for all inputs to become variable and are able to adjust all costs.
3. Answer: None of these
Marginal cost of wheat is the additional made to the total cost by producing one more additional bushel of wheat.
4. Answer: Fixed costs
Fixed cost remains constant throughout the level of production. The cost incurred at zero level of output is called fixed cost.
The relationship between a firm's level of output and level of inputs is given by... economic...
A19. When all of a firm's inputs are doubled, input prices do not change, and this results in the firm's level of production more than doubling, a firm is operating: (A) on the upward-sloping portion of its long-run average total cost curve. (B) on the downward-sloping portion of its long-run average total cost curve. (C) at the minimum of its long-run average total cost curve. (D) on the upward-sloping portion of its marginal cost curve. (E) on the stretch of...
e) Suppose that a competitive firm's marginal cost of producing output q is given by MC(q) -3+2q. Assume that the market price of the firm's product is $9. i) What level of output will the firm produce? (2p) ii) What is the firm's producer surplus? (4p) ii) Suppose that the average variable cost of the firm is given by AVC(g)-3+q. Suppose that the firm's fixed costs are known to be $3. Will the firm be earning a positive, negative, or...
Question 1 Fill in the blank to make the following statements correct. 1.1 The technological relationship between the inputs of factor services and outputs is called the 1.2 A firm's planning decisions made when some inputs are variable but others are fixed are made in the time period known as the _. The time period over which all factors are variable but technology is fixed is known as the 1.3 The change in total output resulting from the use of...

For the first drop down "Based on what you know of the relationship between short-run and long-run costs, the firm's long run average cost curve will look most like (LRAC1 /OR/ LRAC2) on the graph below" For the last part Short Run / Long Run Economic Profit Positive / negative OR zero Action Produce Exit OR Shutdown Thank you!! 1. Shut down versus exit prices in the short and long run Aa Aa The graph below represents the marginal cost...
Suppose that a competitive firm's marginal cost of producing output q (MC) is given by MC(q) = 3 + 2q. Assume that the market price (P) of the firm's product is $15. What level of output (q) will the firm produce? The firm will produce units of output. (Enter your response rounded to two decimal places.) What is the firm's producer surplus? Producer surplus (PS) is $ . (Enter your response rounded to two decimal places.) Suppose that the average...
Suppose that a competitive firm's marginal cost of producing output q (MC) is given by MC(q) = 6 +29. Assume that the market price (P) of the firm's product is $18. What level of output (q) will the firm produce? The firm will produce 6.00 units of output. (Enter your response rounded to two decimal places.) What is the firm's producer surplus? Producer surplus (PS) is $ 36.00. (Enter your response rounded to two decimal places.) Suppose that the average...
Suppose your farm produces grain in a perfectly competitive industry. Currently, you can sell a bushel of grain at $15 per unit. You are producing where marginal revenue equals marginal cost, yielding an output level of 200,000 bushels. At your current level of output, variable costs are $3,340,000 and fixed costs are $150,000. a) What is your current economic profit in the short-run from production? b) Given the correct answer to part a), should you continue producing this output level...
1. Which of the following statements about production functions is FALSE? a. Included in the firm's short-run production function are both fixed and variable inputs b. Higher amounts of inputs will allow a firm to produce more output c. The production function shows the technical relationship between a firm's inputs and outputs d. The relationship between inputs and outputs changes if capital becomes variable in the long run 2. The law of diminishing marginal product is a statement a. that...
