Answer:

producing more output by revamping operation methods of the assembly line

Explanation:

The increase in production from technological progress occurs when the company introduces a new form of production that produces more goods at a lower cost, rationalizing the inputs to the production line (capital and labor). For example, imagine a firm with an assembly line of 10 workers and a machine. If the company changes its production line, replacing the machine and half of the workers with a more modern machine and the production increases to 2000 units, this means that there was a productivity gain, because with a lower utilization of the factors of production (a machine and 5 workers) The company produced twice as many products, due to technological progress.

Fudgin [204]

Solution and Explanation:

1. MC = Cost of raw material + Cost of time

MC = 5 plus (10 divide by 2)

MC = $10

2. TFC = $300

Q = 300 , AFC = TFC/Q = 300 divide by 300 = $1

3. His profit maximizing output would be higher

Reason: P = MR = $15 , MC = $10

Since MR > MC, and at the profit maximizing point MR = MC, it is better for Nicholas to increase his output.

4. His profit maximizing output would be higher

Reason: P = MR = $15 , MC = $4 + $5 = $9

Since MR > MC, and at the profit maximizing point MR = MC, it is better for Nicholas to increase his output.
