The marginal resource cost of the physical capital today is $100 million dollars. Should this firm make this investment at an interest rate of 10%? Why?only typed answer Consider the following information: Q = 16 L + 42 K PL=26, PK=10, P=41 and C=5020 What is the profit maximizing amount of capital?Harvey quit his job at State University, where he earned $62,000 a year.
