In class A7 - Productivity and Costs (Chapter 11) 1. Calculate the Average Product and Marginal Product of the variable input Inputs No. of Average Marginal boats Product Product Labour of Draw the AP and MP curves of the variable input. Remember AP and MP are measured in units of output! Identify the max point of AP of Labour and MP of Labour (the points of diminishing returns for both curves). The diagram need not be to scale. 2.

Suppose a firm has the following production function: Q = 2K L. The marginal product of capital is 2L, and the marginal product of labor is 2K. Assume that capital rents for $100 per unit per day, that labor can be hired for $200 per unit per day, and that the firm is minimizing costs. a. The firm will hire units of labor and - units of capital. b. What is the total cost of producing 60 units of output?...
e) Suppose that a competitive firm's marginal cost of producing output q is given by MC(q) -3+2q. Assume that the market price of the firm's product is $9. i) What level of output will the firm produce? (2p) ii) What is the firm's producer surplus? (4p) ii) Suppose that the average variable cost of the firm is given by AVC(g)-3+q. Suppose that the firm's fixed costs are known to be $3. Will the firm be earning a positive, negative, or...
Assume labor and machines are used in the production of an output. The marginal product of the last worker hired was 175 units a day and the marginal product of the last machine employed was 850 units a day. The wage to hire a worker for a day is $100 while the cost to employ the machine for a day was $400. Assuming perfect competition what would you recommend the firm do to become more efficient?
suppose a firm's total cost of production (TC) is tc=2Q^2 mc=4Q Suppose a firm's total cost of production (TC) is TC = 20 MC = 40 What do the firm's average total cost curve, average variable cost curve, and marginal cost curve look like? Draw the following curves from 0 to 5 units of output. 1.) Using the line drawing tool.graph the firm's average total cost curve and label it ATC 2.) Using the line drawing tool, graph the firm's...
