Firm ABC has estimated that it has the following production function: Q = 1.5LK – 0.3L2 – 0.15K2 Labor (L) has a price of €60 and capital (K) has a price of €75. ABC wants to maximize the production with a total cost of €2025. (a) Determine the quantities of labor and capital the firm should use. (round results to 2 decimal places) (b) What quantity of output will be produced at the optimal combination of factors of production?

Prunella raises peaches where L is the number of units of labor she uses and T is the number of units of land she uses. Her output is f(L,T) = LT bushels of peaches. If the cost of land is 18 and the wage for labor is 13, what would be the slope of an iso-cost line, where total cost is $500. Tis on the vertical axis. Don't forget the negative sign! Write answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 0.93

Suppose that a firm's production function is Q = F(L) = -1L³-30L² + 5,000L. Its marginal product of labor is MPL = -3L2-60L +5,000. a. At what amount of labor input are the firm's average and marginal product of labor equal (other than at L = 0)? Instructions: Enter your answer as a whole number. units. b. Confirm that the average and marginal product curves satisfy the relationship discussed in the text. When the amount of labor input is less than the quantity identified in your answer above, the marginal product of labor is greater than the average product of labor. When labor is greater than the amount identified above, the marginal product of labor is less than the average product of labor.
