16) marginal cost of production measures the change in total
cost due to change in the production level of that good, thus MC
=ΔTC/ΔQ
thus a lower marginal cost implies that the firm is operating at
lower level of fixed cost at that particular level whereas it
starts to increase after certain level due to increase in its
variable cost of production due to diminishing returns to scale
labor-productivity = total output produced/ total labor
used
Marginal Product of Labor = (change in output production / change
in input Labor)

Consider a day for a local junk removal company. The inputs the company uses to haul junk are two employees each paid an hourly wage of $15 per hour and a moving truck, which costs $100 (splitting the cost of ownership over periods). Each hauling job takes 1 hour. Are labor hours a fixed or variable input? Explain. Is the moving truck a fixed or variable input? Explain. Determine the total cost (TC), total fixed cost (TFC), total variable cost...
