A firm has a production function q = KL, where q is the quantity of output, K is the amount of capital and L is the amount of labor. a) Does this production function exhibit increasing, decreasing or constant returns to scale? b) Does the long-run cost function exhibit economies of scale or diseconomies of scale? c) Is the LR Average Cost curve increasing or decreasing with q?
A firm produces gizmos according to the production function Q=10KL, where is the quantity of gismos produced, K is the quantity of capital rented and L is the quantity of labour hired. The manager has been given a production target: Produce 9,000 gizmos per day. He is informed that the daily rental price of capital is $400 per unit and the wage rate is $200 per day. a) Currently, the firm has 10 units of capital. How many workers should...

Suppose a pie factory’s production function is Q=2KLQ=2KL, where Q is the quantity of pies produced each hour, K is the number of ovens used, and L is the number of workers per hour. If KK is fixed at 5 units, what is the firm’s total product of labor equation (i.e., its short-run production function)? Assume 3 units of labor are employed with the 5 units of capital. If production achieves technological efficiency, how many pies are produced per hour?...
A firm has the following production function, where Q is output, K is capital and L is labor: Q = 400K0.5L0.3 Does this firm operate under increasing, decreasing or constant returns to scale, and why?
2. Suppose the production function for widgets is given by where q represents the annual quantity of widgets produced, K represents the annual capital input, and L represents the annual labor input. a. Suppose K 10, write down the expressions for the total product and the average product of labor. At what level of labor input does average productivity reach a maximum? How many widgets are produced at that point? b. Again, assuming that K-10, graph the average product of...
Hi.I need your answer for this kuestion below.Br/H A firm produces widgets according to the production function: F(K,L) = K 1/3L where K is capital and lLis labour. Does the firm’s production function exhibit constant- decreasing- or increasing returns to scale? Explain your answer.
Suppose a firm has a production function given by Q=2K+L, where L is labor, K is capital and Q is the quantity of output. Which of the following statements is WRONG? A. The firm is exhibiting constant returns to scale B. The firm’s marginal product of capital is constant C. The firm’s marginal product of labor is constant D. The firm’s marginal rate of technical substitution depends on the amount of inputs
Suppose the production function for automobiles is ? = ?? where Q is the quantity of automobiles produced per year, L is the quantity of labor (man-hours) and K is the quantity of capital (machine hours). a) What is the total product (number of automobiles) if the firm uses 25 man hours and 2 machine hours? b) Sketch the isoquant corresponding to a quantity of Q=50. c) What is the general equation for the isoquant corresponding to any level of...
Acme produces anvils using labor (L) and capital (K) according to the production function Q= f(L,K)=LK with associated marginal products MPL=K, MPK =L. The price of labor is w=2 and the price of capital is r=1. Does Acme's production function for anvils exhibit increasing, constant or decreasing returns to scale? Justify your answer
