Answer: A. the firm could produce 3 more units of output if it increased its use of capital by one unit (holding labor constant).
Explanation:
The Marginal Rate of Technical Substitution(MRTS) is calculated as follows:
= Marginal product of labor / Marginal product of capital
= 1 / 3
Marginal product of labor = 1
Marginal product of capital = 3
This means that if one unit of labor is used, it produces 1 unit of output.
If one unit of capital is used however, it produces 3 units of output.
If a firm therefore used one unit of capital and kept labor constant, it could produce 3 units out output.
Answer: Rick had a 5.55% nominal salary Increase.
Explanation: In Finances & Economics , Nominal value is measured in terms of money . This means that the value has not been adjusted against inflation and will only show the "Number Value" rather than the economic value which is how much purchase power this salary increase really means.
The formula to calculate the % for this nominal increase is : (Final Value - Initial Value) / Initial Value * 100 ==>> ($47500-$45000)/$45000 = 0.55 *100 ===> 5.5%

An inferior good is a good whose demand increases when income falls and whose demand falls when income rises.
When average income falls, the demand for good X rises. The level of output increases as a result of the rise in demand but price doesn't change.

Answer:
The beta of the portfolio is 1.22
Explanation:
In calculating the beta of the whole portfolio, we can calculate the weighted average beta of each stock .The sum of all weighted betas give the beta of the entire portfolio.
Beta of portfolio=amounted in first stock/entire amount invested*beta of the first+amount invested in second stock/entire amount invested *beta of the second stock
Beta of portfolio=($32000/($32000+$42000))*1.1+($48000/($32000+$48000))*1.3
Beta of portfolio=1.22
