8 0

Explanation:

Over the past several decades, advances in technology, greatly reduced the cost of making computers which resulted in the decline of the equilibrium price of  computers and also resulted in increased equilibrium quantity. The reduction in the computer prices also caused an increase in the consumer surplus.

computer price down -> equilibrium price down

computer price down -> equilibrium quantity up

computer price down -> consumer surplus up

The producer surplus increases due to increase in quantity and at the same time producer surplus decreases due to decrease in price.

computer price down ->  producer surplus down

computer quantity up -> producer surplus up

State law of diminishing returns​
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

see below

Explanation:

The law of diminishing marginal returns indicates that in every production process, adding one more input while holding the others constant will result in the overall decrease in output.

According to this law,  adding one more production unit diminishes the marginal returns, and the average production cost increases. Marginal returns refer to the benefits associated with the production of an extra unit.  

The gain derived from the use of more input while keeping all other factor constant decreases as production increases. For example, employing more workers while all other variables remain constant will result in reduced labor productivity.

Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

a. AD curve will shift to the right

b. AD curve will shift to the left

c. Movement along the AD curve.

b. When The federal government increases taxes in an attempt to reduce a budget deficit. This will cause a change in consumption as people will have less money to spend since disposable income has been reduced, and it will cause the aggregate demand curve to shift inwards to the left.

c. A 4 percent in US inflation will bring about a change in price level and there will be a movement along the aggregate demand curve.

The marginal rate of technical substitution: A. equals the marginal product of capital times the marginal product of labor. B. i
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

D. measures the degree to which one input can be substituted for another, output held constant.

Explanation:

Marginal Rate of Technical Substitution is the rate at which producer gives up one input, in exchange of other input, maintaining the same output level.

So implicatively, it denotes the degree to which one input can be substituted for another, output held constant.

MRTS (K,L) = MP L / MP K = w / r  ; Where :-

K = Capital, L = Labour, MP L = Marginal Productivity of Labour, MP K = Marginal Productivity of Capital, w = Wages, r = Rent

MRTS is diminishing, because of decreasing marginal productivities of factor inputs.
