1. Optimal choice of capital Eleanor makes sweaters in her home. Starting with just some knitting needles and yarn, she was able to knit 60 sweaters per year. Now some local stores have expressed interest in her designs and offered to buy her sweaters for $10 each. This makes it worthwhile for her to invest in some capital; in particular, she could produce many more sweaters if she invested in one or more looms, as shown in the following table. Assume that Eleanor's sweater business is a perfectly competitive firm. Complete the following table by calculating the marginal physical product (MPP) of each loom and the marginal revenue product (MRP) of each loom.

FoisPas, a French restaurant in Westwood, has decided to increase the price of its Sunday brunch from $30 to $34. Following this price increase, the number of reservations on a typical Sunday dropped from 60 to 55. Which statement is correct? O FoisPas was initially maximizing revenues, as demand was unit-elastic at the initial price O The total costs faced of FoisPas on a typical Sunday must have increased for sure O The price increase led to a decrease in total revenues as demand was elastic at the initial price O FoisPas faces a horizontal demand curve O The price increase had a positive impact on total revenue as demand was inelastic at the initial price
