Engle sells Lebanese sandwiches. The cost of ingredients (bread, meat, spices, etc.) to make a sandwich is US$2. Engle pays her employees US$60 per day. She also incurs a fixed cost of US$120 per day. What is Engle's total cost per day when she does not produce any sandwiches and does not hire any workers?
$120
$2
$0
$60
The answer should be very detailed and clear, THANK YOU!!!
Suppose isoquant curves are smooth and bend in towards the origin and the cost minimization point
is determined by the tangent of the isocost lines and the isoquant. Except all the other options
characterize the cost minimization input bundle. (If a condition characterizes the cost minimization
input bundle, the condition holds only at the cost minimization input bundle.)
O MP /w = MP/r
O MRTS = MPL /MPK
O MRTS = w/r
O MPL/MPK = w/t
