Solution :

A firm hires labor till a point where the cost of hiring is equal to the value of the additional revenue it produces.

We know ,

the wage rate = cos of hiring an additional worker

the value of the additional revenue that the firm produces = price x (MPI) marginal product of the labor.

Therefore, the firm will hire when :

Wage = value of the additional revenue it generates

Thus, wage = price  x (MPI) marginal product of the labor ...........(i)

Therefore, given :

wage of a worker = $ 45

Price = $ 12

So, 45 = 12 x MPI

MPI = 3.8

So the marginal product of employing three days of labor = 25-18/4-3 = 7

Marginal product of employing four days of labor = 30-25/4-3 = 5

So the 4th day produces less revenue than the cost that it generates.

So, the firm should hire 3 workers.

Murder has been the worst crime for as long and anyone can remember.  To put it in other words, shortening someone's life.  Something worst that shortening someone's life, is preventing it at all.  You can believe that a living person isn't alive till they're out of the body, but from my "veiw" they are.

timurjin [86]
<span>Is what we call the stock of goods that a business or store has on hand? Inventory. Inventory and inventory management is so important when it comes to running a business with goods for purchase. The business needs to make sure they have enough supply on hand for the amount of demand that consumers have for the product. Usually there is an inventory management team that keeps track of how the products are staying in stock and when reordering needs to happen. </span>
