6. Relationship between returns to scale, isoquants, production frontiers, and cost curves The following graph shows two isoquants that represent the firm's production technology. One of the isoquants shows all of the possible combinations of labor and capital that can produce 300 units of output (q = 300), but you must determine the other isoquant's quantity given the information that follows. CAPITAL 100 90 80 70 60 50 40 30 20 10 0 0 10 20 30 40 50 LABOR 60 70 80 ¹9, = 300 90 100 Suppose the firm's production process exhibits decreasing returns to scale. Based on the graph, the level of output represented by the second isoquant is q2 =

(Table: Customer Valuations for Lawn Services I) The table shows customer valuations for different lawn services. Consumer Valuations per Season Lawn Cutting Fertilizing $ 800 $400 1,000 250 Consumer Ben Ethan The marginal cost of lawn cutting is $400, and the marginal cost of fertilizing is $200. Suppose the lawn service prices its services separately. In this case, the company should charge $ for fertilizing. O 250 800 600 Bundle $1,200 1,250 400
Question 3 to the cost of producing the (x + 1)st item? a Can you think of a cost function, so that the marginal cost at any r is exactly equal If yes, describe as many such functions as possible. If not, show why such a function cannot exist.

3. The company that you manage has already spent $8 million on developing a new product – awebsite that combines You Tube, Twitter, and Facebook – called You Twit Face. Thedevelopment is not quite finished. It will cost an extra $2 million to finish development andcomplete the product. Assume that this $2 million amount includes the explicit costs and anyopportunity cost that the company may have. At a recent meeting, your salespeople report thatthe expected sales of your new product (if you finish) are $6 million total. If you do not finishdeveloping the product you can sell the incomplete product to another company for $2 million. What is the MC of finishing the development? __________________ What is the MB of finishing the development? __________________ Should you finish the product? Why or why not? Use the idea of “thinking at the margin” toexplain your answer. Need details explanation
