I don’t understand what is the question?
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.

Explanation:
Value can be defined as the thing for which an customer is willing to pay the price. It is the activity on any shop floor or business for delivering the product or service to the customer for which the customer is ready to pay the price for it.
If the customers does not wish to pay the price, then there is no value.
So inside a factory, in a shop floor, moving a part from one place to another for making a product that the customer is willing to pay is a value added activity. But excess movement or transportation of product does not any value to it, it is then considered as a waste.
Also storing of products is a non value activity as storing a product will not help the customer in any way and a customer will not pay for a product when it is stored and is of no use to the customer.

Advantages of Informal Sector employment:
Some employers pay well because company owners do not have many tax obligations. Employee effort is directed towards achieving profit rather than satisfying irrelevant routines.
There can be a close and direct relationship with the employer, therefore making it easy to get permission when in need of time off.
You are saved the hassle of paying Pay As You Earn tax.
There’s no red tape when it comes to dealing with personnel issues which are expressly handled either by the employer him/herself, or a senior manager.
Sometimes employment is done on the spot with little emphasis on attending lengthy job interviews and countless aptitude tests.
Sometimes one is employed because of one’s personal relationship with the employer rather than on merit.

Little or no job security.
Unprotected by labour laws.
Odd working hours.
No pension, insurance or health insurance scheme.
Summary dismissals.
