Suppose that a firm's production function is given by Q = KL(MPK = L and MPL = K), where Q is the quantity of output, K is units
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

Please find the detailed answer as follows:

Explanation:

Q = KL

Wage = 30

Rent or price per unit of capital = 20

a) A firm minimizes its cost at the point where marginal rate of technical substitution is equal to the ratio of the prices of inputs.

So, marginal rate of technical substitution = marginal product of labor / marginal product of capital = wage / rent

K / L = 30 / 20

K / L = 1.5

K = 1.5L

Q = KL

Putting the value of Q = 600 and K = 1.5L in the above equation,

600 = 1.5L x L

600 = 1.5L2

L2 = 600/1.5 = 400

L = 20 is the answer.

K = 1.5L

K = 1.5 x 20 = 30 is the answer.

So, 20 units of labor and 30 units of capital should be used by firm to minimize the cost of producing 600 units of output.

b)

A firm minimizes its cost at the point where marginal rate of technical substitution is equal to the ratio of the prices of inputs.

So, marginal rate of technical substitution = marginal product of labor / marginal product of capital = wage / rent

K / L = 30 / 20

K / L = 1.5

K = 1.5L

Q = 1.23KL

Putting the value of Q = 600 and K = 1.5L in the above equation,

600 = 1.23 x 1.5L x L

L2 = 600 / (1.23 x 1.5)

L2 = 325.2

L = 18 approximately or rounded off.

K = 1.5L

K = 1.5 x 18 = 27

Total cost = (wage x units of labor used) + (rent x units of capital used)

= (30 x 18) + (20 x 27)

= 540 + 540 = 1080 is the answer.

Explanation: k = 81 units L = 16 units

(81 × 3/4) × (16÷4) = 243

Q =243

APL = Q / L

243 ÷ 16 = 15.1875 units of labour

A bond has a Duration (not Modified) of 4.2 years and is priced at 99.50. Its yield is 3%. How much will its price change if the
saw5 [17]

Answer:

1.22%

Explanation:

The modified duration of the bond gives an indication of change in price due to a 1% change in the yield to maturity,hence, the bond modified duration is computed using the formula below:

modified duration=Macaulay Duration/(1+YTM)

Macaulay Duration=4.2

YTM(initial)=3%

modified duration=4.2/(1+3%)= 4.08  

That for 1% change in yield to maturity price would change 4.08%

0.3% change in yield(3.3%-3%)= 4.08%*0.3%=1.22%
