What do Experience curves tell us?
A college football coach says that given any two linemen A and B, he always prefers the one who is bigger and faster. Is this preference relation transitive? Is it complete?
The production function for puffed rice is given by q , where q is the number of boxes produced per hour, K is the number of puffing guns used each hour, and L is the number of workers hired each hour.
Calculate the q = 1,000 isoquant for this production function and show it on a graph.
If K = 10, how many workers are required to produce q = 1,000? What is the average productivity of puffed-rice workers?
Suppose technical progress shifts the production function to , answer parts a
and b for this new situation.
The Cobb-Douglas function is widely used in Economics to represent the relationship between the inputs and outputs of a firm. It
takes the form Y = ALa KB, where Y represents
the outputs, L the work and K the capital. This formulation can be applied to utility and takes
the form u(x) = xal ...xan, where the exponents
are positive and add up to 1. Consider the problem of maximizing utility:
max xay1-a
S.a p1x+p2y=w
x, y≥0
Where p1, p2 > 0 are the prices and w > 0 the budget.
A) Write the conditions of KKT and find a solution of them, depending on p1, p2,w and a.
B) Can it be said that this solution is optimal for the original problem? Justify.
C) Find the multiplier 1, depending on p1, p2, w and a.
