- In the Heckscher-Ohlin (H-O) model, Explain with the help of a graph the effect of an increase in the relative price of a labor-intensive good on input choice.How does a consumer’s optimal choice of goods change if all prices and the consumer’s income double? (Hint: focus on the budget constraint. You don’t have to, but you can use an example to support your answer).5. Output is produced according to a production process given by: Q = 4LK, where L is the quantity of labor input and K is the quantity of capital input. If the price of K is $10 and the price of L is $5, then what is the cost-minimizing combination of K and L capable of producing 32 units of output?Input either "increase" or "decrease" where relevant: A decrease in the price of a complementary good will cause its complement’s equilibrium price to ...... and the equilibrium quantity to .....
- KA. Please fill the following table (you can assume there are only two inputs), write explicitly the arguments of the value and demand functions.For a subsistence agricultural household, which of the following happen when the price of the staple they are producing increases? [SelectMultiple] Group of answer choices Due to profit effect, their utility as producers increases. The impact on overall welfare of the household is ambiguous since it depends on the relative forces of profit effect and price effect. Their is no effect since subsistence households never sell or buy their staple production. Due to price effect, their utility as consumers decreases.Gıven two inputs X1 and X2 with Prices W1 and W2, and a production function Y=F(X1X2) show that the marginal rate of substitution between the two inputs is equal to the ratio of their prices.
- Suppose that aKC = 5, capital used to produce one yard of cloth. aLC = 8, labor used to produce one yard of cloth aKF = 4. capital used to produce one calorie of food aLF = 6. labor used to produce one calorie of food. Which of the following is True? a. Cloth is labor intensive. b. Food is labor intensive. c. Both food and cloth are labor intensive. d. Both food and cloth are capital intensive.If the economy uses inputs efficiently, then (pls select all that applies) Group of answer choices a) MRTS = 1. b) MRTS must be equal to the slope of a firm’s isoquant curve. c) the ratio of input marginal products must be equal to the ratio of input prices. d) the quantity of one output cannot be increased without decreasing the quantity of the other. e) every firm’s MRTS is equal to every consumer’s MRS. f) every firm’s MRTS is equal to the ratio of input prices. g) MRTS = MRT. h) outputs are on PPPlease help me find the marginal rate of substitution.
- Consider a firm for which production depends on two normal inputs, labor and capital, with prices w and r, respectively. Initially the firm faces market prices of w = 6 and r = 4. These prices then shift to w = 4 and r = 2.a. In which direction will the substitution effect change the firm’s employment and capital s tock?b. In which direction will the scale effect change the firm’s employment and capital stock?c. Can we say conclusively whether the firm will use more or less labor? More or less c apital?Consider Bundle A: (B, M) = (12 loaves, 16 gallons). If bread is the horizontal axis good, what is Rhea's marginal rate of substitution at bundle A?Economics: Labor Economics Question: 1 If unskilled labor and robotics are substitutes in production a decrease in the price of robotics is predicted to a. decrease the demand for unskilled labor if the scale effect outweighs the substitution effect. b. decrease the demand for unskilled labor if the substitution effect outweighs the scale effect. c. unambiguously increase the demand for unskilled labor. d. unambiguously decrease the demand for unskilled labor. Question: 2 Assuming capital is fixed in the short run and variable in the long run what would likely happen to wages in the short and long run following a wave of immigration? a. a large decrease in the short run, followed by a smaller decrease in the long run b. a small decrease in the short run followed by a larger decrease in the long run c. an increase in the short run followed by a large decrease in the long run d. a decrease in the short run followed by an increase in the long run Question: 3 Which of the following…
