Select ANY company, which is enjoying economies of scale, economies of scope or both. Explain briefly how this company achieves the economies of scale/scope.
Do you think there are economies of scale and economies of scope in health care markets? Answer providing examples.
2) Determine whether the following production functions exhibit constant, increasing, or decreasing returns to scale (or none of these) a) Y=K+L^1/3 b) Y= aln(L) + bIn(k)
4. Do the following functions exhibit constant, increasing or decreasing returns to scale? a. l 31K2 b. Q L1'2K1' 21 c.Q 4L1'2 4K
Which of the following firms are more likely to exhibit economies of scale and be a natural monopolist a) One with large fixed costs and large marginal costs. b) One with large fixed costs and small marginal costs. c) One with small fixed costs and small marginal costs. d) One with small fixed costs and large marginal costs.
Given the following production functions, determine if they exhibit increasing, decreasing, or constant returns to scale. Be sure to mathematically prove your answer and show your work. Y = K + L Y = 4(K + L)0.5 Y= 10(KL0.5)
1. Determine the returns to scale of the following functions. Show your work. a) Q = 4K + 3L b) Q = 2KL c) Q = 10K/L 2.For each of the following production functions below, find the LR total cost as a function of Q: TC(Q) LR average total cost as a function of Q: ATC(Q) How does LR average total cost vary with Q? (Hint, find the derivative: dATC(Q)/dQ) Does this cost function exhibit economies...
Determine whether the following production functions exhibit constant, increasing, or decreasing returns to scale. L, K, and H are inputs and Q is the output in each production function. Initially, set each input = 100 and determine the output. Then increase each input by 2% and determine the corresponding output to see if constant, increasing, or decreasing returns to scale occur. (a) Q = 0.5L + 2K + 40H (b) Q = 3L + 10K +...
QUESTION 10 Do the following production functions exhibit increasing, decreasing or constant return to scale? a. q-K2L exhibits b. q-K0.310.7 exhibits c. q-k0.310.3 exhibits d. q-K+L exhibits e. q-K0.7+L0.7 exhibits
1. How does the economies of scope concept differ from the economies of scale concept? 2. Related diversification causes bureaucratic costs to increase more than unrelated diversification. Explain why that is the case.
