- Suppose the production function is given by Q = 5K+2L. What is the marginal product of capital when 5 units of capital and 10 units of labor are employed?4) A firm faces a production function of twittle-twaps: Q(K,Lp,Ln) = 5*K(2/5)*LP(1/3)*LN(1/5) per hour, where capital (K), production labor (LP), and non-production labor (LN) are input factors used in production. The firm operates in a competitive market, where they are a price taker within the capital & labor markets and its own price (r = 40, wP = 25, wN = 50, P = 20). Answer the following.a. If capital and non-production labor are fixed at K = 32 and LN = 243, what is the general form MPLP and graph Q wrt to LP changing [you do not need to solve for LP yet].b. Is this production function decreasing, constant, or increasing returns to scale and why.c. Given the wage of production workers and the price of twittle-twaps, what is the optimal number of LP to employ to maximize profits and the quantity produced (VMPLP = wP).d. If the firm can control both K and LP, what does the Isoquant curve look like and its slope in relative terms if LN is fixed at 243 units [IQ slope =…4) A firm faces a production function of twittle-twaps: Q(K,Lp,Ln) = 5*K(2/5)*LP(1/3)*LN(1/5) per hour, where capital (K), production labor (LP), and non-production labor (LN) are input factors used in production.

- Question: Orla manages a loom that produces flags (F) using thread (T) and dye (D) as inputs. Herproduction function is given by: Q(T,D) = (T1/2 D1/2)1/2*For this problem, assume F, T, and D are infinitely divisible so you don’t need to worryabout restricting to whole-number answers. a.) Does Orla’s production function exhibit increasing, constant, or decreasing returns toscale? Explain. b.) Set up Orla’s cost-minimization problem to find the lowest-cost combination of inputsrequired to produce a specific level of output (bar Q) given factor prices PT and PD. (Note: You can write this either as a minimization subject to constraints or in Lagrangian form. *You do not need to solve it.)A firm produces output according to the production function Q = F(K, L) = 4K + 8L.a. How much output is produced when K = 2 and L = 3?2. A firm uses capital (K) and labour (L) to produce luxury office chairs. The production technology is given by Q = K ³/4L¹/4, where Q is the number of chairs produced.
- Suppose a firm’s production function is given by q = 2KL + L , where K is capital and L is labor. What is the average product of labor (APL) when 5 units of capital are employed?Question 8 of 13 The following diagram depicts the production function of the farmers, where diminishing average product of labour is assumed. At A the average product of labour is 500,000/800 = 625 kg of grain per farmer. At B the average product of labour is 732,000/1,600 = 458 kg of grain per farmer. If you know that for 2,800 farmers the grain output is 894,000kg, then which of the following is/are correct? Kilogrammes of grain produced (thousands) 900 800- 700- 600- 500 400- 300- 200- 100- 0 0 400 800 B 1,200 1,600 Number of farmers 2,000 2,400 2,800 OA. The average product of labour when the labour input is 2,800 is 300. OB. The decreasing slopes of the rays from the origin to the production function along the curve indicate the decreasing average product of labour. OC. If the production function curve is an upward-sloping straight line, then there is no diminishing average product of labour. OD. It is possible that initially there is an economy of scale: for example, going from…An electronics plant’s production function is Q = 5LK, where Q is its output rate, L is the amount of labor it uses per period of time and K is the amount of capital it uses per period of time. The Price of labor is $1 per unit of labor and the price of capital is $2 per unit of capital. a) What is the optimal combination of inputs the plant should use to produce 1000 units of output per period? b) Suppose that the price of labor increases to $2 per unit. What effect will this have on optimal L and K to produce Q=1000? c) Is this plant subject to decreasing returns to scale? Why or why not?
- Why is having a business objective of increased economies of scale always desirable?For a firm to maximize profit, it must minimize the cost of producing whatever quantity it produces. Use the isocost and isoquant tools to present a firm that is choosing the optimal levels of labor and capital (i.e., tools) to produce a certain quantity and a certain cost. Then, show in your diagram how this firm would respond if it were to expand and spend more on its inputs, assuming it is best for the firm to become more “capital intensive” as it grows. Comment on WHY a firm might best become more capital intensive as it expands, even when the relative prices of labor and capital remain unchanged.Production is described by the function f(K, L) = AL0.3K 0.3, A > 0.a. Interpret the exponents of the function f( K, L) and the parameter A. b. Explore the effects of scale of this production function. Does the answer depend on A?c. What is the degree of homogeneity of this function? Does the answer depend on A? d. Consider a production function given by F(K, L) = f 2(K, L ). How do the answers to thequestions in b. and c. change?e. Consider a production function given by F(K ,L) = f(K, L) + 2. How do the answers to thequestions in b. and c. change
