Assuming a Cobb-Douglas production function with constant returns to scale, then, as L rises with K and A constant, it will be the case that:
a. Both the marginal product of labour and the marginal product of capital will fall
b. The marginal product of labour will fall and the marginal product of capital will rise
c. Both the marginal product of labour and the marginal product of capital will rise
d. The marginal product of labour will rise and the marginal product of capital will fall
The equation below is a production function,Q = (200)L + (100)K – (0.2)L2 – (0.1)K2 , where Q is output, L is labor and K is capital.
What is the Marginal Product of capital of this function?
200 - (0.4)L
- (0.2)L
100 - (0.2)K
- (0.1)K
Consider the following production function when K is fixed. (This is a description of the figure: it shows a two-axis graph; in the horizontal axis we measure labor and in the vertical axis we measure meals; the graph of the production function is a line that intersects the vertical axis at a positive amount; this graph is a line with positive slope and passes through the point (4,300)).
Can we say that the production function satisfies the law of decreasing marginal returns of labor?True False
