- Why do average variable costs eventually rise if a company's output increases enough? O Diminishing marginal product occurs, causing average variable costs to rise. The diminishing marginal revenue triggers increased use of resources. O The reduction in average fixed costs must be offset by increasing variable costs. O The price paid for each unit of input keeps rising.May I know the Correct Answer: 1. In a the short product process a(an) marginal cost is negative and decreases marginal product of labor explains why Select the correct response: o None of the above o Increasing; does not change o Diminishing; decreases o Diminishing, rises - WRONG ANSWER o Zero; falls o Constant; rises 2. Tom borrowed Php500,000 from her parents to open a spa. He pays her parents a 5% yearly return on the money they lent her. Her other yearly fixed costs equal Php150,000 and his variable costs equal Php200,000. In her first year, Tom had a total of 2,000 customers at a price of Php300/customer. Tom's total fixed cost is 675000 - WRONG ANS 3. A firm uses labor and capital to produce an output. The hourly cost of labor is 10 and the hourly cost of capital is 50. Which of the following combinations of labor and capital hours of use represent points on the firm's 100,000 isocost line?

- In economics, how long is the long run? O 5 years or more More than 12 months O 24 months or longer Whatever time it takes a firm to vary all inruts.The production function for a widget-manufacturing firm is given by q = 9K0.5L0.5, where q is the number of widgets produced each hour, K is the number of specialized staplers (which is fixed at 4 in the short run), and L is the number of employees. What is the average product of labor at L = 36? O 18 O 9 1.5 3 O none of the aboveSuppose you have a pizza shop. Your rent is $800 and you've spent $1950 on labor and materials to make 550 pizzas in one month. What are your total FIXED costs? O $800 O $1950 O $2750 Cannot be determined
- 6:20 PM | 0.4KB/s D O 3. Suppose that the production function is Q- L07%K©25, a) What is the average product of labor holding capital K fixed. b) What is marginal product of labor? c) What is marginal product of capital? d) What is MRTS? VXLet's assume that a firm produces 60 products. Its total weekly cost (TC) at this output is $2,100. This includes TVC and TFC. We also know that the firm employs 3 part- time workers at a wage cost of $600 per worker per week. This is the firm's only variable cost (TVC). What is the firm's average fixed cost (AFC) at this output? O $2.50. O $2. O $5. O $100. O $10. Let's assume that a firm's total weekly costs are as follows: 1. Salaries of hired workers $5,000. 2. Supplies = $1,000. 3. Rent = $600, 4. The owners have invested a certain amount of their own money into the business. This could have earned them interest of $200 per week if they had chosen to put it into a bank instead of investing it into their business. 5. The value of the owner's time is estimated to be $800 per week. What are the firm's total economic costs? O $6.000 O $7.600. O $900. $7.500. O $6.700.32. Assuming labor is the only cost for production, a firm hires labor up to the point at which the wage equals (i) the value of the marginal product of labor, (ii) the marginal cost of an additional unit of output, (iii) output price multiplied by the marginal product of labor, for maximum profit. O (i) and (iii) only O (i) and (ii) only (ii) and (iii) only O (i), (ii), and (iii)
