Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

$10

Explanation:

The marginal rate of technical substitution (MRTS) is an economic theory that illustrates the rate at which one factor must decrease so that the same level of productivity can be maintained when another factor is increased.

DATA

Marginal Product Labor (MPL)= 12

Marginal Product Capital (MPk) = 20

Price of labor = w = 6

Price of capital = r

Solution

Marginal rate of technical substitution = MPL/MPk

Marginal rate of technical substitution = 12/20

Marginal rate of technical substitution = 3/5

At optimal choice MRTS = PL/Pk  

MRTS = w/r

3/5 = 6/r

3r = 30

r = 30/3

r = 10
