Answer:
a. from one banks to another
Explanation:
Answer:
Constant Return to Scale
Explanation:
Based on the information given the numbers
suggest that between 100 and 110 units of output, the firm producing this output has CONSTANT RETURN TO SCALE.
Constant Return to Scale occurs in a situation where the proportional increase in all the inputs is as well equal to the proportional increase in output which means the returns to scale are constant , which is why RETURNS TO SCALE help to describe all what happens to long run returns when the scale of production increases.
Therefore Constant returns to scale often occur when the output increase in exactly the same way or the same proportion as the factors of production.
The way economists would probably explain the wastage of
this clam resource is by saying that clams are free goods and are therefore
subject to the tragedy of the commons effect. The tragedy of the commons effect
is a theory in economics, postulated by the Victorian economist William Forster
Lloyd.
The tragedy of the commons effect describes a condition
within a shared-resource system where each user act freely according to their
own self-interest, but their collective actions ends in the depletion or spoilage
of that resource, thus having a negative impact on the common good of all users.
In this case, commons is taken to refer to the clam resources.
Answer: A. the firm could produce 3 more units of output if it increased its use of capital by one unit (holding labor constant).
Explanation:
The Marginal Rate of Technical Substitution(MRTS) is calculated as follows:
= Marginal product of labor / Marginal product of capital
= 1 / 3
Marginal product of labor = 1
Marginal product of capital = 3
This means that if one unit of labor is used, it produces 1 unit of output.
If one unit of capital is used however, it produces 3 units of output.
If a firm therefore used one unit of capital and kept labor constant, it could produce 3 units out output.
