- I Collado Lumber Company is producing tons of lumber per day. The following table is the costs of production. The managers currently have six machines. The price of output is $5 per unit. The wage of the worker is $55 per worker. From economic theory, we know that the value of the marginal product is price times the marginal product of labor. According to economic theory, a worker should be hired if the value of the marginal product is greater than the marginal cost of hiring a worker. See the table below.
