Assume that a business firm finds that its profit is greatest when it produces $40 worth of product A. Suppose also that each of the three techniques shown in the table below will produce the desired output:a. With the resource prices shown, which technique will the firm choose? Why? Will production using that technique entail profifit or loss? What will be the amount of that profifit or loss? Will the industry expand or contract? When will that expansion or contraction end?b. Assume now that a new technique, technique 4, is developed. It combines 2 units of labor, 2 of land, 6 of capital, and 3 of entrepreneurial ability. In view of the resource prices in the table, will the fifi rm adopt the new technique? Explain your answer.c. Suppose that an increase in the labor supply causes the price of labor to fall to $1.50 per unit, all other resource prices remaining unchanged. Which technique will the producer now choose? Explain.d. “The market system causes the economy to conserve most in…
Rue operates a food truck on Florida beaches, where she sells paninis and drinks, which she can sell for $8.00 and $4.00, respectively. Rue uses all of the money she makes to purchase theme park tickets, which cost $96.00, and her only other income comes from dividend payments of $32.00 from her investment portfolio. Let ?1 represent paninis, ?2 represent drinks, ? represent tickets, and ? represent dividend income. Complete Rue's budget equation: 8 ?1 + 4 ?2 + 32 = 96 ? Two of Rue's friends are coming to town,

You said that "this may result in a steeper AS curve due to the fact that firms can produce more output for a given price level.". However, I think that steeper AS without the change of y-intercept(shift) will have opposite effect. I drew a diagram to compare different As curves with same y intercept and different slopes. It is clear that for same level; of price level, steeper AS has loer output (Y2) than faltter AS (Y1), could u please explain it for me? Thanks a lot :)
11.2 An automobile retailer calculates that its loss on the sale of Type M cars is given by L(50) = 1,000 and L'(50) = −300, where L(x) represents the loss on the sale of x Type M cars. What do these values tell you about losses? The loss on the sale of Type M cars is $ , and the loss is decreasing at the rate of $ per additional Type M car sold.
