1. Can a company have the average product (output) of labor, APL, equal the marginal product of labor, MP4, i.e. MP,=AP_? If “no”, then why, and if “yes”, then at what level of labor and what does it mean?

APL, MPL RENT Wage Rate APL MPL Lc Units of labor 4. The graph, drawn above, shows the average product of labor and the marginal product of labor applied on a fixed resource, like land. Explain why the resource is overused (Lc labor units are applied on the resource), if it is a common property but it is properly used (L* labor units are applied on the resource), if it is privately owned.
q=L^{0.50}K^{0.50} Assuming K=\bar K q=L^{0.50}\bar {K}^{0.50} \therefore AP_L=\frac{q}{L}=\frac{L^{0.50}\bar {K}^{0.50}}{L}=L^{-0.50}\bar {K}^{0.50} Therefore, the correct option is D. Both a and b: APL = L^-0.50 K(constant)^0.50. APL= q/L. Can you explain how L^-0.50 became negative, I've been trying to figure it out.
