The marginal product can be found out by differentiating the production function with respect to that input keeping other inputs constant.
So, marginal product of x1 is y / x1 = A X 1 X x1(1 - 1) X x22 X x33 X x44 = A1x1(1 - 1) x22 x33 x44
Marginal product of x2 is y / x2 = A X 2 X x11 X x2(2 - 1) X x33 X x44 = A2x11 x2(2 - 1) x33 x44
Marginal product of x1 is y / x3 = A X 3 X x11 X x22 X x3(3 - 1) X x44 = A3 x11x22 x3(3 - 1) x44
Marginal product of x1 is y / x4 = A X 4 X x11X x22 X x33 X x4(4 - 1) = A4x11x22 x33 x4(4 - 1)

Q. 1 Consider an economy with the following Cobb-Douglas production func- tion: Y = 5K The economy has 27,000 units of capital and a labour force of 1,000 workers. a. Derive the equation describing labour demand in this economy as a function of the real wage and the capital stock. b. If the real wage can adjust to equilibrate labour supply and labour de- mand, what is the real wage? In this equilibrium, what are employment, output, and the total...
