11 Suppose Jill Johnson operates her pizza restaurant in a building she owns in the center of the city. Similar build- ings in the neighborhood rent for $4,000 per month. Jill is considering selling her building and renting space in the suburbs for $3,000 per month, but she decides not to make the move. She reasons: "I would like to have a restaurant in the suburbs, but I pay no rent for my restaurant now, and I don't want to see my costs rise by $3,000 per month." Evaluate Jill's reasoning.

The table provides information about the production function for Lindsay's Farm, which uses labor and land to produce its produce. The price of labor is $50 per worker per week and the price of land is $20 per acre. Quantity of Land (acres) 10 10 10 Quantity of Labor (workers) 0 1 2 3 5 Quantity of Produce (bushels) 0 50 100 Table 55-4: Lindsay's Farm. 170 190 When Lindsay increases output from 50 units of produce to 100 units of produce, her marginal cost per unit is equal to:
Suppose Nicholas owns a business making Christmas tree ornaments. Currently, he makes 300 ornaments a month. At this level of production, each additional ornament takes him 30 minutes to make and costs him $5 in materials. Nicholas makes his ornaments in a small studio that he rents for $300 a month. Nicholas can easily increase or decrease the amount of time he spends making ornaments, and he can easily go to the store to buy additional materials to make the ornaments, but he has a year-long lease on his studio, so he has to pay his monthly rent no matter how many ornaments he produces each month. Nicholas values his time at $10 per hour. Other than his time, the cost of the materials and the rent on his studio, Nicholas has no additional production costs. a At Nicholas's current level of production, what is the marginal cost of making an additional ornament each month? b. At Nicholas's current level of production, what is the monthly average fixed cost of each ornament? c. Assuming…
Brian uses wool (K) and labour (L) to produce t-shirts (q). The production function is: q = min{1/3L, 2K}. The inputs are perfect complement.If he uses 0.5 kg of wool and 3 hours of labour, he can produce 1 t-shirt. Draw isoquants for q = 1, q = 2 and q = 3 on a diagram with labour on horizontal axisand wool on vertical axis.
