(Question 1)
MPL = Change in Q / Change in L
MRPL = MPL x Output price
(a)
L | Q | MPL | MRPL = 30 x MPL |
0 | 0 | ||
1 | 19 | 19 | 570 |
2 | 29 | 10 | 300 |
3 | 37 | 8 | 240 |
4 | 43 | 6 | 180 |
5 | 46 | 3 | 90 |
6 | 48 | 2 | 60 |
7 | 48 | 0 | 0 |
Hiring is optimal when MRPL = Wage rate = $90, which holds true when L = 5.
(b)
L | Q | MPL | MRPL = 45 x MPL |
0 | 0 | ||
1 | 19 | 19 | 855 |
2 | 29 | 10 | 450 |
3 | 37 | 8 | 360 |
4 | 43 | 6 | 270 |
5 | 46 | 3 | 135 |
6 | 48 | 2 | 90 |
7 | 48 | 0 | 0 |
Hiring is optimal when MRPL = Wage rate = $90, which holds true when L = 6.
(c)
Hiring is optimal when MRPL = Wage rate = $180, which holds true when L = 4 (Using table in Part a).
