Suppose you are a worker in the construction industry in the state ofToronto, Canada. The MPL in this industry is (see attached image) where Kc and Lc are the amounts of labor and capital, respectively, in the indus-try. If Toronto has 30,000 construction workers and 120,000 units ofconstruction capital, what is your MPL)? Note: Attached is the formula.
Suppose a country has a production function Y=2K0.5L0.5, where K is the amount of capital and L is the amount of labor. The economy begins with 400 units of capital and 625 units of labor. Find numerical answers to the following. Be sure to show your work. What is the real wage and the real rental price of capital? (Hint: Assume the firms are maximizing profit.) Suppose there is a natural disaster and half of the capital is destroyed. What is the new level of output? What is the new real wage and real rental price of capital? How much output does the economy produce? Please answer all part I will rate
Input Quanity 100 150 200 Real domestic output 200 300 400 The table gives information about the relationship between input quantities and real domestic output in a hypothetical economy. If the price of each input is $12, the per-unit cost of production in the economy is?
asap Suppose the economy's production function is Y = AKO.3NO.7. If K=2000, N = 100, and A = 1, then Y=246. If K and N both rise by 20%, and A is unchanged, by how much does Y increase?

An economy has an aggregate production function to produce goods and services Y = AK1/3L 2/3 where Y represents total output (i.e GDP), K is capital, L is labor, and A is total factor productivity (TFP). This economy devotes a share of 30% of its output to gross investment. Capital depreciates at a rate of 10% per period. The TFP level is one and there are 2 units of labor available for production. • Suppose the economy starts with a capital stock at time t = 1 equal to 1 unit. Write down the values of gross investment, net investment, capital, consumption, and output observed during the subsequent 10 periods • What is the steady state level of capital, assuming A = 1 and L = 2? • Suppose that the economy is at its steady state and there is an increase in the depreciation rate from 0.10 to 0.15. What is the new steady state value for capital? Discuss your results.
