Beta Inc. has two production plants that use finely divisible
labor to produce its output. The marginal product of labor at plant
1 is
MP1L=100/L1MPL1=100/L1
and the marginal product of labor at plant 2 is
MP2L=250/L2.MPL2=250/L2.

2. Suppose a circuit manufacturer can use regular (human) workers or robots to produce its output. The quantity of workers is L and the quantity of robots is R. The production function is q = 50L - L2 + 100R - R2. The firm is a small firm in the input market for workers and robots, and a small firm in the market for circuits. The price per unit of labor is w. The price per robot is r. The...
Assume that a firm has a fixed-proportions production function, in which one unit of output is produced using one worker and two units of capital. If the firm has an extra worker, say two workers, and no more capital, it still can produce only one unit of output. Similarly, an extra unit of capital does the firm no good.a) Draw the isoquants for this production function.b) Draw the total product, average product, and marginal product of labor curves (you will...
