<u>Multiple-choice options</u>
A) there is increasing scarcity of factors of production.
B) the price of extra units of a factor is increasing.
C) there is at least one fixed factor of production.
D) capital is a variable input.
Explanation:
he law of diminishing marginal returns cites that adding extra input while maintaining the others fixed will cause the overall output to decrease . Adding one more production input while keeping the rest intact decreases the marginal returns and increases the average production cost.
The law only applies where there at least one fixed input. When the firm uses more of the variable input, the firm's marginal product will eventually decrease.
Answer and explanation:
Demand elasticity measures the changes in quantity demanded as the result of changes in price. Demand elasticity is calculated by dividing the percentage change in quantity demanded by the percentage change in price. If the result is equal or higher than one (1) the product is <em>elastic </em>but if the result is lower than 1 the product is <em>inelastic</em>.
In the case, <em>as the elasticity of demand of the museum ticket is 0.45 it means the museum tickets is inelastic. This scenario implies that in front of changes of price the quantity demanded will not change. Thus, as a curator of the museum you should </em><u><em>increase the museum ticket price to increase revenue</em></u><em>.</em>

Answer: C) total surplus is maximized.
Explanation:
Total surplus refers to the sum of both the producer and the consumer surplus.
When allocation of resources is efficient, it means that the total surplus is maximised because the price that is being charged is the same as the equilibrium price that is required.
At this point, all participants in the market will be better off which means both producers and consumers will be better off.
