TRUE OR FALSE: As a result of the increase in wage, the firms
supply curve will only change if its subsituties towards capital at
each level of output.
6. Substitution effect due to a relative change in input price Аа аа Suppose a firm is initially producing 100 units of output at point B, where the purple line (diamond symbols) labeled Isocosti lies tangent to isoquant IQ (Q = 100). Suppose that initially the wage is $10 and the rental...

Assume the wage rate is w=$2, and the rental rate of capital is r=$7. The marginal product of labor is MPL=30, and the marginal product of capital is MPK=90. If the firm wishes to minimize its production costs, and continue to produce the same level of output, it should: a) increase capital, reduce labor b) increase labor, reduce capital c) do nothing d) increase both capital and labor

4. Consider a firm that uses both labor and capital in production. The price of capital is $20 per unit and the wage rate is S10 per hour. a. Draw the firm's isocost line assuming a total production cost of $100. How steep is this line (that is, what is its slope)? Be sure to clearly label the axes. (3 points) b. Suppose the wage drops to $5 per unit. In which direction does the substitution effect change the firm's...

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...

Mom produces eyephones using capital(K) and labor(L). The wage rate is $15 per hour and the user cost of capital is $10 per hour. The slope of an isocost line with L on the horizontal and K on the vertical axis is If Mom spends $90 to produce eyephones, two input combinations that lie on this isocost curve are (K= La ) and (K= LE
