Afirm has production function q=10"(L^0.5)*(K^0.5), where "L"0.5" means "L raised to the 0.5 power," and the same applies to the

Amanda [17]

Answer:

(A) 15 × p

(B) $225\times p{^2}$

(C) $P\times 5\times k^{0.5}$

Explanation:

(B) direct= demand function of labor will be,

Q: f(w),

where Q is labor demand quantity and is function of wage

K=9 constant, then production function changes to,

$=30L^{0.5}$

Marginal product of labor:

$= 15L^{-0.5}$

Marginal revenue product or value of marginal product:

$=15p\times L^{- 0.5}$

This is showing what revenue a firm will generate due to hiring one additional unit of labor.

So firm will keep hiring until the revenue the additional labor is generating is equal to its hiring cost or wage.

So, putting MRP or VMP to wage:

$P\times15\times L^{-0.5}=W$

By solving,

$\frac{(225\times p^{2})}{W^{2}}=L$

And the multiplicative term is $225\times p{^2}$

(A) Inverse demand function of labor will be,

W: f(Q)

where W is wage rate and demand function of labor demanded quantity.

As previously solved,

$P\times15 \times L^{0.5}=W$

and the multiplicative constant term is 15 × p.

(c) In long run capital will also variate, so production function will be,

$=10L^{0.5}\times k{^0.5}$

$MP=\frac{(5\times k^{0.5})}{L^{0.5}}$

$VMP=\frac{P(5\times k^{0.5})}{L^{0.5}}$

( p is market price of good that firm is producing using labor)

putting it equal to Wage)

$W=\frac{(5\times k^{0.5})}{L^{0.5}}$

and the constant term is $P\times 5\times k^{0.5}$ .

Note:

I did a) second place and b) on first . I already put the serial alphabet on the start of the answer.

John was ordering orange cones to use for soccer drills during practices. If John decided to purchase cones now, he would buy 10

FrozenT [24]

The own-price elasticity of the soccer cones is -0.67

The computation of the own-price elasticity of the soccer cones is as follows:

We know that

The Elasticity of demand is

= (change in quantity ÷ average quantity) ÷ (change in price ÷ average price)

Here

Change in quantity = 14 - 10 = 4

average quantity = (14 + 10) ÷ 2 = 12

change in price = 3 - 5 = -2

average price = (3 + 5) ÷ 2 = 4

So,

The Elasticity of demand is

= (4 ÷ 12) ÷ (-2 ÷ 4)

= -0.67

Therefore we can conclude that the own-price elasticity of the soccer cones is -0.67

An economy is operating with output $400 billion above its natural level, and fiscal policymakers want to close this expansionar

antoniya [11.8K]

Answer: reduced by $80 billion

Explanation:

An expansionary gap is when the actual output is more than the potential output. From the question, we are told that an economy is operating with output $400 billion above its natural level, and fiscal policymakers want to close this expansionary gap and that the central bank agrees to adjust the money supply to hold the interest rate constant, so there is no crowding out.

We are also given the marginal propensity to consume is 4/5, and told that the price level is completely fixed in the short run.

To close the expansionary gap, the government would need to reduce its spending. To solve this, we have to calculate the multiplier. This will be:

Multiplier = 1/(1 - MPC)

= 1/(1 - 4/5)

= 1/1-0.8

= 1/0.2

= 5

Therefore, the government expenditure or spending will be reduced by:

= $400 billion/5

=$80 billion

Identify whether the statements below are true or false by dragging and dropping the appropriate term into the bin provided.

Tema [17]

Solution and Explanation:

1. False- Long run Economic growth is likely to be sustainable because of finite natural resources as othe man made resources will be available to sustain growth.

2. False- In mordern economy posesing few natural resources will not affect a country to develop economically; human resources and man made resources will also contribute. Foreign trade can also play an important role towards growth, in the absence of abundant natural resources.

3. True- Natural resources are vital, and mostly exhaustible. Hence it is very essential to find suitable alternatives.

4. False- Economies of 21st century depend on human capital due to depletable atural resources.

5. True - In the 19th century, minerals and farming land were the most mportant resources, since self sustainability was in vogue.
