Suppose the production function for widgets is given by q=kl -0.8k²-0.21² where q represents the annual quantity of widgets produced, k represents annual capital input, and I represents annual labor input. Suppose k = 10; at what level of labor input does this average productivity reach maximum? (please put your answer in numerical values with no comma or decimal place). How many widgets are produced at that point? (please put your answer in numerical values with no comma or decimal place). If k = 10, at what level of labor input does MPL = 0? Suppose capital inputs were increased to k = 20, at what level of labor input does this average productivity reach maximum? widgets are produced at that point? (please put your answer in numerical values with no comma or decimal place). If k = 20, at what level of labor input does MPL = 0? answer in numerical values with no comma or decimal place). Does the widget production function exhibit constant, increasing, or decreasing returns to scale?…
