Answer:

less than 10 units

Explanation:

The production function represent the diminishing marginal returns

Here diminishing marginal returns means that marginal output i.e. generated an extra unit would continue to reduce more units of input that are used

So if we add one unit of capital that increased the output by 10 units so if another unit if capital is added so it increased the output but that should be less than 10 units

<u>Solution: </u>

The answer is attached.

<u>Part (b):</u>  

How many screens will be built if the real interest rate is 5.5 percent?

<u>Answer:</u> 3 screens

<u>Part (c): </u>

How many screens will be built if the real interest rate is 7.5 percent?

<u>Answer:</u> 1 screen

<u>Part (d):</u>

How many screens will be built if the real interest rate is 10 percent?

<u>Answer:</u> 0 screens

<u>Part (e): </u>

If the real interest rate is 5.5 percent, how far would construction costs have to fall before the builder would be willing to build a five-screen complex?

<u>Answer:</u> $727,272.73(approx.)

Explanation:

Part (a):

Make a table showing the value of the marginal product for each screen from the first through the fifth:

Solution:

The solution is attached with working.

<u>Part (b):</u>

<u>How many screens will be built if the real interest rate is 5.5 percent?</u>

<u>Solution:</u>

3 screens

The interest cost of each screen = 5.5% x $1,000,000 = $55,000.

There are no other costs mentioned. The value of marginal product exceeds $55,000 for 3 screens.

Therefore, 3 screens should be built.

<u>Part (c): </u>

<u>How many screens will be built if the real interest rate is 7.5 percent?</u>

<u>Solution:</u>

1 screen

The value of the marginal product exceeds the interest cost (7.5% of $1,000,000, or $75,000) for only the first screen.

Thus, <u>one</u> screen will be built.

<u>Part (d):</u>

<u>How many screens will be built if the real interest rate is 10 percent?</u>

<u>Solution:</u>

0 screens

At 10% interest, the interest cost of a screen is $100,000, more than the value of the marginal product of even the first screen.

<u> </u>Thus, no screens will be built.

Part (e):

<u>If the real interest rate is 5.5 percent, how far would construction costs have to fall before the builder would be willing to build a five-screen complex?</u>

<u>Solution:</u>

The value of the marginal product of the fifth screen is $40,000. At an interest rate of 5.5%, building five screens is profitable only if 5.5% times the per-screen construction cost is no greater than $40,000.

<u>Financial cost per screen = real interest rate x construction cost of per screen </u>

$40, 000 = 5.5% x construction cost per screen Construction cost per screen  = $40,000 ÷ 5.5%

= $727,272.73(approx.)

Oduvanchick [21]

Explanation:

Unit cost is the total production cost divided by the number of units manufactured. A company usually produces similar products in lots with hundreds or thousands of units per batch.

An overall overhead rate for the entire plant is a single level used only to allocate or assign all overhead production costs for a company to its output of production. Products for easier operation, such as assembly, can be allocated overhead at a level of $20 per hour of direct work.
