F (L, K) = L0.2K0.7， The wage rate (price per unit of labour) is w = 2 and the capital rental rate (price per unit of capital) is r = 7. Derive the equation of the isoquant for y = 2 (with K in the vertical axis and L in the horizontal axis). Use the first and second derivative to show that this curve is decreasing and convex. Provide a graphical representation of the isoquant indicating at least one combination of labour and capital in this curve.

The United States has established a progressive income tax system, where a worker’s tax rate onearnings increases as she earns more money. There are 168 hours in a given week. Assume thatfor the first 56 hours worked, the tax rate is t1, which means that the net real wage is w*(1-t1).After working the 56th hour, the worker jumps to a higher tax rate t2. After the 112th hourworked, the individual jumps to an even higher tax rate, t3.(a) During most election years, some politicians argue that a having a flat tax system isbetter. Assume that there is a proposal to institute a flat tax, where all workers pay a taxrate equal to t4, which is greater than t3. On the same set of axes, graph the budgetconstraints associated with the progressive tax system and the flat tax system. Make sureto label all of the slopes.(b) Would moving to this proposed flat tax system likely encourage more or fewer hoursworked for relatively high-wage workers? Make sure to explain your answer (a writtenexplanation…

) Suppose there are two inputs in the production function-labor and capitaland that these two inputs are perfect substitutes. Suppose that the price of capital is 750 GHC per machine per week and that the weekly salary of each . worker is 300 GHC . i) Draw the isocost line ii) With the aid of a graph, explain the effect of a wage decrease on flrm-level employment and output holding initial cost ouday constant.
Sketch a production function relating output to labour input. Now imagine that the amount of capital per person increases, thanks to the government borrowing to invest in more capital. Use dotted lines on the same diagram to show the impact on (i) total output and (ii) the average product of labour. Explain your answer. Imagine that the demographic response to a higher standard of living is strongly positive. Using a different colour of line on the same diagram, show how this demographic response to higher incomes would go on to affect incomes in the future. The population is aware that the government borrowing required to finance this capital investment will need to be paid back via tax rises, so they respond by reducing their spending. Using a “Keynesian cross” framework and sketch diagram, model this response as a fall in autonomous consumption, c0.
