Ray's Pizzeria is considering the addition of a 5th worker if this increases profit. Pizza sales increased from 300 per day to 3
Anika [276]

Answer:

60 pizzas

40 pizzas

Explanation:

Marginal product measures the change in output as a result of a change in input by one unit

Marginal product = change in output / change in input

Marginal product for the 4th worker

Change in output = 360 - 300 = 60 pizzas

Change in input = 4 - 3 = 1 worker

Marginal product = 60 / 1 = 60

Marginal product for the 5th worker

Change in output = 400 - 360 = 40 pizzas

Change in input = 5 - 4 = 1

Marginal product = 40 / 1 = 40

It can be seen that marginal product decreased from 60 to 40 when the 5th worker was added. This illustrates diminishing marginal returns.

The law of diminishing returns says as more units of a variable input is added to a fixed income of production, output might increase at a point but after some time total output would increase at a decreasing rate and marginal product would be decreasing.

Jose goes to an all-you-can-eat buffet at a Chinese restaurant and consumes three plates of food. He does not go back for a four
kkurt [141]

Answer:

The marginal utility of the fourth plate is zero or below zero

Explanation:

The reason is that the law of diminishing marginal utility says that the marginal utility of a product declines upon continuous consumption of that item. This means that the utility before the consumption of first buffet was high and when the second buffet was consumed by the same person the utility was further reduced and so on. This means that the utility must be positive which if is higher enough then the customer is will to pay and eat the buffet again. If it is zero or below zero the customer is not willing to pay for the buffet. This is the reason the person doesn't ordered the item again.

You can not eat the same buffet for all the 365 days. This means the taste of a tasty food fades away after some time or I would say that the utility is gone. Same is the case when you will keep using cellphone for a period and then sell it or dispose it because the item doesn't entertains you or in other words the utility has significantly fallen and is almost zero or below zero.

dsp73

Answer:

A perfectly elastic demand curve means that the firm can sell as much output as it chooses at the current price.

Explanation:

The perfectly elastic demand implies that the demand curve is horizontal line parallel to the X axis. The price is fixed at a point and the firm can sell any amount of output at this point. The demand is infinite at the given price level. If the firm makes any changes in this price level, the demand will become zero.
