Raphael is a hard-working college junior. One Tuesday, he decides to work nonstop until he has answered 100 practice problems for his math course. He starts work at 8:00 AM and uses a table to keep track of his progress throughout the day. He notices that as he gets tired, it takes him longer to solve each problem. Time Total Problems Answered 8:00 AM 0 9:00 AM 40 10:00 AM 70 11:00 AM 90 Noon 100 Use the table to answer the following questions. The marginal, or additional, gain from Raphael’s first hour of work, from 8:00 AM to 9:00 AM, is _____ problems. The marginal gain from Raphael’s third hour of work, from 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM, is _____ problems. Later, the teaching assistant in Raphael’s math course gives him some advice. “Based on past experience,” the teaching assistant says, “working on 25 problems raises a student’s exam score by about the same amount as reading the textbook for 1 hour.” For simplicity, assume students always…

According to a firm’s technology of production, you can take away 3 units of labor if you add 5 units of capital without changing production. The price of labor is $8 and the price of capital is $6. Assuming the firm’s MRTS is diminishing, this firm a. is minimizing cost at its current output level. b. should use more capital and less labor to lower the cost of producing its current output. c. should use less capital and more labor to lower the cost of producing its current output. d. should use less capital and less labor to lower the cost of producing its current output. e. None of above.
city is trying to estimate the most money it should offer to contractors as an incentive for them to finish a disruptive road project early. The transportation project lengthens transport times by 10 hours per week for 40,000 workers. Assume that all workers are paid $10 per hour in a perfectly competitive labor market. What is the most that the city should pay to the contractors as an incentive for completing the project four weeks early

Fill in the missing parts in the following tables to illustrate the behavior of production and costs in the short-run; then determine the optimal level of production according to the number of inputs you are intending to use. Output Units Land Square Meters Capital Egyptian Pounds Labor Units 0 20 40000 0 1000 20 40000 5 1600 20 40000 8 2100 20 40000 11 2500 20 40000 14 2600 20 40000 17 Output FC VC TC MCL MPL AVC AFC ATC 0 1000 1600 2100 2500 2600 -Hint Consider land and capital as fixed factors, while labor units as variable factors. The cost of land is L.E20 per square meter. The interest rate on capital is 10%. The average wages per unit of labor is L.E1500.
