A firm buys two inputs, labor L and capital K, the total amount of which cannot exceed 100 units. The wage is $8, and the rental

rate of capital is $10. The firm can, at most, spend $840 on the two inputs. This data can be summarized in the following equations:
Input limit. K + L = 100
Budget limit: 8L + 10K = 840
What are the quantities of two inputs the firm must buy in order to produce a maximum output, given input and budget constraints?

K=

Answer:

a.

Input limit: K + L = 100

Budget limit: 8L + 10K = 840

b.

L = 80

K = 20

See below

Explanation:

With regards to the above, we need to develop equations and put in function of one of the variable , say with L(labor)

Input limit

K + L = 100. Equation 1

Budget limit

8L + 10K = 840 Equation 2

From equation 1, make K subject of the formula

K + L = 100

K = 100 - L

Substitute for K in equation 2

8L + 10K = 840

8L + 10(100 - L) = 840

8L + 1,000 - 10L = 840

8L - 10L = 840 - 1,000

-2L = -160

L = 80

We can also get the value of K by substituting for L in equation 1.

K + L = 100

K + 80 = 100

K = 100 - 80

K = 20

Since we have the optimum K, we can replace in any of two equations to find the optimum L,

Also, we will replace the input limit and budget limit equation to verify

Input limit

K + L = 100

20 + 80 = 100

Budget limit

8L + 10K = 840

8(80) + 10(20) = 840

640 + 200 = 840

840 = 840

Tasya [4]

Answer:

How will the government’s budget deficit be affected by public infrastructure projects?

Explanation:

Macroeconomics is concerned with the general behavior and changes in the economy as a whole. Macroeconomics studies parameters that affect the entire economy, such as inflation, unemployment, national income, gross domestic product (GDP), and general price levels.  It contrasts microeconomics, which studies the choices and behavior of individual households and industries.

A government's budget is for the entire economy.  A deficit that affects public infrastructure projects will impact the country's economic development programs. Government spending forms part of fiscal policies that influence economic development in a country.

zysi [14]
Given:
130,500 net pay to employees
  19,000 income tax withholding
    5,000 FICA withholding

130,500 + 19,000 + 5,000 + 5,000 = 159,500

<span>The total wages and payroll tax expense to the company for this pay period, excluding any unemployment taxes, is $159,500.
</span>
The 5,000 is added twice because the first 5,000 is withheld from the employees salary as the employees share. The employer also has to pay off 5,000 as employer's share to the employee's FICA withholding. Thus, the presence of the 2nd 5,000. 

FICA, <span> Federal Insurance Contributions Act,</span> is composed of
1) <span>6.2 % Social Security tax;
2) <span>1.45 % Medicare tax (the “regular” Medicare tax); and
3) 0.9 % of a Medicare surtax starting 2013 for employees earning over $200,000.
