Answer the following questions based on the following production function: Does this production function represent the long run or the short run? Explain. Suppose capital (K) is held fixed at 3 units and the firm hires 5 workers. What is the average product? What is the marginal product of adding the 6^th worker? Does the production function eventually exhibit diminishing returns? If so, where and why does this occur? Depict the isoquants for the production function for output levels 27...
For each of the following production functions, solve for the marginal products of each input and marginal rate of substitution. Then answer the following for each: does this production function exhibit diminishing marginal product of labour? Does this production function exhibit diminishing marginal product of capital? Does this production function exhibit constant, decreasing, or increasing returns to scale? Show all your work.(a) \(Q=L+K\)(b) \(Q=2 L^{2}+K^{2}\)(c) \(Q=L^{1 / 2} K^{1 / 2}\)
