e worker, the firm’s total monthly revenue will increase from $54,000 to $66,000. If he adds one more tractor, monthly revenue will increase from $54,000 to $62,000. Each additional worker costs $4,000 per month, while an additional tractor would also cost $4,000 per month.

Answer:

A.$12,000

B.$8000

C.MRPL/PL = 3

MRPK/PK =2

D) Since each of the above calculated ratios are more than one, therefore adding additional worker or tractor will increase the total revenue for each of the dollar spent.

Explanation:

(a) The Marginal Revenue Product of Labor (MRPL) can said to be the additional revenue generated when an additional worker is employed.

$66,000 - $54,000 = $12,000

Thus, MRPL is 12,000

b) Marginal revenue product of capital is

( 62000 - 54000)= $8000

c) MRPL/PL = 12000/ 4000= 3

MRPK/PK = 8000/4000=2

Therefore Since these two ratios are not equal it means the firm is not using the least cost combination of inputs.

d) Since each of the above calculated ratios are more than one, therefore adding additional worker or tractor will increase the total revenue for each of the dollar spent.

Jayanta is raising money for the​ homeless, and discovers each church group requires 2 hr of letter writing and 1 hr of​ follow-
valina [46]

Answer:

6 cruch and 2 labor

provides 6 x 125 + 2 x 250 = 1,250

Explanation:

2x + 1y = 125

2x+ 3y = 250

contribution per letter writing:

125 / 2  = 75

250 / 2 = 125

contribution per call hour:

125 / 1 = 125

125 / 3 = 41.67

The church provides better yield per constrain resourse so first we use church

maximum church group possible:

letters 16/2 = 8

calls 12 / 1 = 12

the maximum amount possible is 8 but doing so

leave unsued capacity for the follow-up calls.

Therefore is better to reduce the cruch meetings to use the entire capacity leaving a combination of:

6 church        x 2 letter  =  12

2 labor union x 2 letter =    4

                                total   16

6 church        x 1 hs call  =  6

2 labor union x 3 hs call =  6

                                total   12
