Pizzeria would likely also experience diminishing returns to labor as more workers are added to work in the shop (maybe not with the 2nd or 3rd worker, but almost certainly at some point). To make the analysis a bit simpler assume the Pizzeria just does take out business and only sells Pizzas.

Isocost and Isoprofit Curve Analysis

An isocost curve in the production theory that is a crucial part of economics depicts different combinations of factor inputs at a given market cost. In other words, this shows all the combinations of production factors that cost the same for the firm to employ. Usually, this can be depicted as a downward sloping straight line when the firms act as the price-takers in the factor markets. The slope of this mainly depicts the relative prices of different production factors.
