A firm's production function is given by y(K, L) = 2√(KL) or 2(KL).5 (2 times the square root of the product of K and L), where K is the number of machines used and L is the number of labor hours.A) Does this production process exhibit increasing, constant or decreasing returns to scale? (Hint: You MUST compare y(2K, 2L) to 2*y(K, L)... do NOT compare any other proportional increase!).B) Holding the number of machines constant at 4, is the marginal product of labor increasing, constant or decreasing as more labor is used? (Hint: You MUST construct a table of L, TP, and MP for 0 through 4 workers).Insert work for both A and B.

A company produces commercials. A 2-minute commercial, for example, needs exactly 5 minutes of filming and 8 minutes of editing. Let x1 denote the minutes of filming and x2 denote the minutes of editing. a) Write down the production function and state whether it has increasing, constant, or decreasing returns to scale b) Suppose that filming costs $45 per minute and editing costs $10 per minute. To produce a 5-minute commercial, how many minutes of filming and how many minutes of editing is needed to minimize cost? c) Suppose that filming costs w1 per minute and editing costs w2 per minute. Let y denote the length (in minutes) of commericals produced. derive the conditional factor demand functions x1(w1,w2,y) and x2(w1,w2,y) and its cost function c(w1,w2,y)

Suppose that corns are produced according to the production function q = 100K + 50L, where q represents pounds of corns produced per hour, K is the number of acres of land devoted to corn production, and L represents the number of workers hired each hour. 1. Does this production function exhibit increasing, constant, or decreasing returns to scale? 2. Give one reason why this production function is probably not a very reasonable one.
Emma sells hot chocolate outside of Yankees baseball games. They have two inputs in the production of hot chocolate: (hot chocolate mix (x1, measured in kg) and labour (x2, measured in hours. The production function for hot chocolate (in liters) is: f (x1 , x2) = (x1)1/3(x2)1/3 A) Does this firm have constant, increasing or decreasing returns to scale? The cost of hot chocolate mix is w1, and the cost of labour is w2. If Emma produces "y" liters of hot chocolate the cheapest way possible, then B) How many kilograms of hot chocolate mix would they use? C) How many hours of labour? D) What is the cost function of producing this much hot chocolate?

Consider an airline's decision about whether to cancel a particular flight that hasn't sold out. The following table provides data on the total cost of operating a 100-seat plane for various numbers of passengers. Total Cost Number of Passengers (Dollars per flight) 40,000 10 60,000 20 65,000 30 68,000 40 70,000 50 71,000 60 72,500 70 73,500 80 74,000 90 74,300 100 74,500 Given the information presented in the previous table, the fixed cost to operate this flight is s At each ticket price, a different number of consumers will be willing to purchase tickets for this flight. Assume that the price of a flight is fixed for the duration of ticket sales. Use the previous table as well as the following demand schedule to complete the questions that follow. Price Quantity Demanded (Dollars per ticket) (Tickets per flight) 1,000 700 30 400 90 200 100

The manager of a T-shirt stand found that the cost to produce 10 T-shirts is $105.68, while the cost to produce 40 T-shirts is $402.98. Assume the cost C(x) is a linear function of x, the number of T-shirts produced. Calculate the marginal cost of a T-shirt, that is, the change in cost of producing one additional T-shirt.
