Suppose that we have perfectly competitive input markets and output markets. Firm "Tomato Harvesting" produces canned tomatoes which it sells at $50. Suppose that initially the firm's production technology is given by: f(k,l) = l(1/2) Technological innovation has occurred, however. A new harvester has been invented by a professor. If the firm employs the tomato harvester, the new production technology is given by: f(k.l) = k0.25l(1/2) The rental rate of capital =$2 a) Suppose the market wage is $3. How...
