Answer:

Let understand what elastic and inelastic demand is:

- If the small change in price causes heavy change in the quantity demanded then the demand is said to be elastic.

- Opposite to it is inelastic where even there is a very high change in the price but there is not so much effect on the quantity demanded.

Here, Camel cigarettes has a price elasticity of demand which is equal to 6 which means if the price suddenly increased, the quantity demanded will decrease. If any cigarette is having price elasticity of demand less than 2, it means it has less elasticity or if price increases very much then quantity demanded will not be affected so much.

Suppose that production for good X is characterized by the following production function, Q = K0.5L0.5, where K is the fixed inp
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

B). $12

Explanation:

As per the given data, the AFC(Average Fixed Cost) for employing 25 factors of labor and 16 factors of capital would be $12.

We are given the production function,

Q = K^{0.5} L^{0.5}

where,

K = allotted input in short-term

Rental rate of each unit/factor(r) = $15

Wage per factor(w) = $5

As we know, the two inputs are labor, as well as, capital;

To find AFC, we need TC;

so,

TC = (Fixed cost + Variable cost)

TC = (240(15 * 16) + 125(25 * 5) = 365

Thus,

AFC = $ 12
