Answer:
Following are the solution to the given question:
Explanation:
The decrease of a marginal input return implies that its input is increasing by one unit, thereby decreasing its marginal input product.
Function of production

Its capital products subject (MPK) is derived by differentiating the factor of production from K.

Note: When a value is changed from numerator to denominator, then the power symbol shifts between positive to negative.
Since k is in the denominator, K decreases
, and therefore MPK is reduced.
There's hence a decreased effective return on capital again for production function.
Its marginal labor product (MPL) is determined by distinguishing the manufacturing function from L.

The denominator of L reduces L
and therefore reduces MPL.
So there is a decreasing marginal return to labor in the production function.
Answer:
Zero or Positive.
Explanation:
The project should be accepted if the NPV (net present value) is “zero” or “positive” because the zero value means that the project will not be in loss. However, the positive value shows that the project will give profit. But if there is a negative value of net present value then it reflects that the project is giving a loss. Therefore, the project with negative NPV must be rejected. And the project that has zero net present value or positive net present value should be accepted.
Answer:
The correct option is d. Non cash activity
Explanation:
Operating Activity: The operating activity is that activity which records any changes ion the working capital or we can say increase or decrease in the currents assets and current liabilities.
Investing Activity: The investing activity records all those transactions which are related to the purchase and sale of fixed assets
Financing activity: It records those transactions which is for the long term i.e issue of shares, the redemption of debentures, etc.
All these three activities are term as cash activities because it includes cash transactions.
So, in the given question it is mentioned that the purchase of equipment by issuing a long-term note payable which is a non-cash activity because it does not have any cash transaction. It does not affect the cash balance.
Thus, under non-cash activity, we classify the purchase of equipment by issuing a long-term note payable
Hence, the correct option is d. Non-cash activity
