C) employment of one more worker. D) the increase in total revenue attributable to the increase in total cost attributable to the total product divided by the number of workers employed. 9. The law of diminishing marginal products indicates that: as extra units of a variable resource are A) added to a fixed resource, marginal product will decline beyond some point. because of economies and diseconomies of B) scale a competitive firm's long-run average total cost curve will be U-shaped. the demand for goods produced by purcly C) competitive industries is downsloping. beyond some point the extra utility derived D) from additional units of a product will yield the consumer smaller and smaller extra amounts of satisfaction. 10.
