The production function for homes is given by:
Q = 5KL
Where Q = output of homes per week
K = capital
L = work teams
a. Assuming capital is fixed at K=5, how many labor teams does the firm need to hire if it wants to produce 100 homes ?
b. If each labor team costs $500 and capital costs $100 per unit, how much will it cost them to produce 100 homes?
c. If there are no work teams available, how many homes can be built?

17) We manufacturer automobiles given the production function q = 5KL where q is the number of autos assembled per eight-hour shift, K is the number of robots used on the assembly line (capital) and L is the number of workers hired per hour (labor). If we use K = 10 robots and L = 10 workers in order to produce q = 450 autos per shift, then we know that production is: A) technologically efficient. B) technologically inefficient. C)...

A production function is given as Q = 21L - 0.06L2. If each unit of output Q contributes $10 in revenue (sells for $10) and each labor unit costs $42 per hour, how many units of labor (L) should be hired to maximize profit? Given your answer to part c, what output (Q) will the firm produce? Assuming no other cost than labor costs, what is the profit at this level of labor and output Suppose that the marginal...
