Explain what you understand partial equilibrium analysis to be. Describe what the term "labour productivity" means.

At low levels of production, marginal productivity of labor increases as labor increases. At high levels of production, marginal productivity of labor decreases as labor increases. Are these two statements contradictory? Explain.

A production function is given by q = 500L + 320K. The price of capital is $120 and the price of labor is $100. What is the marginal product of capital divided by the price of capital? Answer to two decimal places.

Economics Modify the Lewis model and assume that there is a strictly positive marginal product of labor in the traditional sector. Use figures with production functions in the traditional and the modern sectors to show what the equilibrium is when no one wants to move away from agriculture. What assumptions do you have to make about production functions to arrive at the conclusion that fewer people will end up in agriculture? Use the same starting point as in the above question. Derive the demand for labor in the traditional and in the modern sectors. Show graphically what the characteristics of the equilibrium would look like when no one wants to change sectors.
