Yes, the above equation contradicts the statement that GDP fluctuates over time. This is because this equation considers Capital and labor to be constant and fixed level of capital and labor will keep the level of GDP constant. This is against the statement that GDP fluctuates because labor is considered variable in short run and both capital and labor are considered variable in the long run.

Consider the production function given by y = f(L,K) = L^(1/2) K^(1/3) , where y is the output, L is the labour input, and K is the capital input. (a) Does this exhibit constant, increasing, or decreasing returns to scale? (b) Suppose that the firm employs 9 units of capital, and in the short-run, it cannot change this amount. Then what is the short-run production function? (c) Determine whether the short-run production function exhibits diminishing marginal product of labour. (d)...
