A firm produces output Q by using capital K and labor L in fixed proportions, i.e. Q = F (K ,L ) = min {K, L/3}. The price of a unit of labor is w = 6, the price of a unit of capital is r = 2 and the price of output is p = 20. a) Draw the isoquant for Q = 8. b) Find the marginal product of labor. Suppose that (in part c and d) the...

Suppose there is a monopolistically competitive market with n identical firms, such that each firm produces the same quantity, q. Further, the market is in the monopolistically competitive long-run equilibrium. You are given the following: Inverse market demand: P 10-Q Total market output: Qnxq Marginal revenue: MR 10n+ 1)xq Total cost: C(q)-5+q Marginal cost: MC 2xq In long-run equilibrium, each firm earns zero economic profit. In long-run equilibrium, the number of firms, n, is and each firm produces units) of...
1. Suppose a firm is producing output according to Q=1001KL. A. Draw a sketch of this firm's isoquant map B. What equation do you use to find a cost-minimizing combination of inputs for a certain output level Q.? K C. The marginal products of labor and capital are given by MP, = 50, and L MPK = 50, L respectively. The price of labor is $5 per unit, and the price of K capital is $20 per unit. What is...
Suppose a single firm produces all of the output in a contestable market. The market inverse demand function is P= 400-4Q, and the firm's cost function is G Price: $ | 1 Profits: $ 10Q. Determine the firm's equilibrium price and corresponding profits. You are the manager of a firm that competes against four other firms by bidding for government contracts. While you believe your product is better than the competition, the government purchasing agent views the products as identical...
Suppose that a competitive firm's marginal cost of producing output q (MC) is given by MC(q) = 3 + 2q. Assume that the market price (P) of the firm's product is $15. What level of output (q) will the firm produce? The firm will produce units of output. (Enter your response rounded to two decimal places.) What is the firm's producer surplus? Producer surplus (PS) is $ . (Enter your response rounded to two decimal places.) Suppose that the average...
Suppose that a competitive firm's marginal cost of producing output q (MC) is given by MC(q) = 6 +29. Assume that the market price (P) of the firm's product is $18. What level of output (q) will the firm produce? The firm will produce 6.00 units of output. (Enter your response rounded to two decimal places.) What is the firm's producer surplus? Producer surplus (PS) is $ 36.00. (Enter your response rounded to two decimal places.) Suppose that the average...
Suppose a firm produces an output level according to the simple production function: Q = 5 L K, which implies M P L = 5 K and M P K = 5 L. Further suppose a firm must pay labor (L) a wage rate (w) of $5 per unit, and the rental rate (r) on capital (K) is $25 per unit. A. Find the marginal rate of technical substitution. B. Write the equation for the isocost line. What is the...
VILPELLO P IU points) 4. A firm produces an output with the production function Q=KL, where Q is the number of units of output per hour when the firm uses K machines and hires L workers each hour. The marginal products for the production function are MPK = L and MP, = K. The price of K is 4 and the price of L is 2. The firm is currently using K =16 and just enough L (you have to...
