IV. Will can produce a higher grade, Gw, on an upcoming economic exam by studying. His production function depends on the number of hours he studies marginal analysis problems, A, and the number of hours he studies supply and demand problems, R. Specifically, Gw = 2.5A0.36R 0.64. His roommate David's grade production function is G) = 2.5A0.25R0.75 a. What is Will's marginal productivity from studying supply and demand problems? What is David's? b.

Con Co. produces a collectible card game. Currently, the price of capital is at $50 and the price of labor is at $10. The marginal product of capital is 200 and the marginal product of labor is 30. To minimize cost of the given output, Con Co. should Use more capital Use more capital and labor Leave capital and labor as is Use more labor

Consider a firm that produces output using industrial robots and skilled labor. Suppose it is the case that a reduction in the price of industrial robots causes the firm's labor demand curve for skilled workers to increase (i.e., to shift to the right). This implies that: There is diminishing marginal product of robots. O There is diminishing marginal product of skilled labor. O Robots and skilled labor are complements. O Robots and skilled labor are substitutes. The unit cost of skilled labor is below the unit cost of robots.

Suppose that labor is the only input used by a perfectly competitive firm.The firm's production function is as follows:a.Calculate the marginal product for each additional worker.b.Each unit of output sells for $10.Calculate the marginal product for each additional worker.cCompute the demand for schedule showing the number of workers hired.
A chair manufacturer hires its assembly-line labor for $5 an hour and calculates that the rental cost of its machinery is $10 per hour. Suppose that a chair can be produced using 4 hours of labor or machinery in any combination. If the firm is currently using 2 hours of labor for every two hours of machine time, is it minimizing its cost of production? If so, why? If not, how can it improve the situation? The firm O A. is currently minimizing its cost of production because its marginal rate of technical substitution is greater than the ratio of input prices. O B. is not currently minimizing its cost of production because the ratio of the marginal product of labor to the marginal product of capital is less than the ratio of the wage rate to the rental cost. O C. is currently minimizing its cost of production because its marginal rate of technical substitution equals the ratio of input prices. O D. is not currently minimizing its cost of production because the marginal product of labor…
