A firm can manufacture a product according to the production function: Q = F(K, L) = K3/4L1/4. Instruction: Enter your responses rounded to three decimal places. a. Calculate the average product of labor, APL, when the level of capital is fixed at 81 units and the firm uses 16 units of labor. ____ What is the average product of labor when the firm uses 256 units of labor? ____ Instruction: The second response is the exponent on L in the...
Problem 05-01 A firm can manufacture a product according to the production function: Q=F(K.L) = 3/4 1/4 a. Calculate the average product of labor, AP, when the level of capital is fixed at 81 units and the firm uses 16 units of labor. Instruction: Round your responses to 3 decimal places. What is the average product of labor when the firm uses 256 units of labor? b. Find an expression for the marginal product of labor, MP4, when the amount...
You are an efficiency expert hired by a manufacturing firm that uses K and L as inputs. The firm produces and sells a given output. If w (price of labor) = $40, r (price of capital) = $100, MPL = 20, and MPK = 40 is the firm minimizing cost? Please explain and show any calculations. (b) The production function for a competitive firm is Q = K0.5L0.5. The firm sells its output at a price of $10 and can...
In the short-run, we assume that capital is a fixed input and labor is a variable input, so the firm can increase output only by increasing the amount of labor it uses. In the short-run, the firm's production function is q =f(L,K), qs8LK + 3L2-1.3 where q is output, L is workers, and K is the fixed number of units of capital. What is the marginal product of labor as a function of L and K? MPL=/ -(Properly format your...
A firm discovers that when it uses K units of capital and L units of labor, it is able to produce X = L^1/4*K^3/4 units of output. a. Draw the graph of isoquants in labor-capital plane. b. Suppose that the firm produces 24 units of output using 16 units of capital and 81 units of labor. Compute MRTS subscript LK. Compute the MPL. Compute the MPK. c. On the basis of your answer to part (b), is the equation MRTS...
Name: 1. Consider a firm that hires workers (L) and produces output (Q). a. If the firm charges a price of $1 per unit output (P) and pays a nominal wage of $8 per worker (W), fill in the values in the following table, where MPL is marginal product of labor (units per worker), VMPL is the value of the marginal product of labor ($ per worker), and W/P is the real wage (units per worker). Labor Output MPL Price...
Problem #3: Long-Run Labor Dernand and Factor Substitutability Suppose there are two inputs in the production function, labor (L) and capital (K), which can be combined to produe Y units of output according to the following production function Y = 30K + 10L The firm wants to produce 600 units of output 1. Draw the ot that corresponds to that level of production (600 units) in a graph that has L on the horizontal axis and K on the vertical...
Please show all work. Problem #3: Long-Run Labor Demand and Factor Substitutability Suppose there are two inputs in the production function, labor (L) and capital (K), which carn be combined to produce Y units of output according to the following production function: Y = 30K + 10L The firm wants to produce 600 units of output. 1. Draw the isoquant that corresponds to that level of production (600 units) in a graph that has L on the horizontal axis and...
Consider a competitive firm that produces bots. Labor (L) and capital (K) are the only two inputs of production; each unit of labor is paid the market wage (w), and each unit of capital is rented at the rental price of capital (r). Output (Y) is therefore a function of labor and capital, or Y = f (K, L), and is sold at the market price (P). The goal of this firm is to maximize profit given the price of...
I understand this question is very long, but please only answer if you can complete all of it. When I posted it the first time I received a-d, which I am including below. I am not sure if they are correct. Thank you so much in advance!! Suppose a short-run production function is described as Q = 30L - 0.05L2 where L is the number of labors used each hour. Derive the equation for Marginal Product of labor (MPL): ...
