You might think that when a production function has a diminishing marginal rate of technical substitution of labor for capital, it cannot have increasing marginal products of capital and labor. Show that this is not true, using the production function Q = L2K2.

2. Marginal products, RTS, and elasticity of substitution: Consider the following production function: q=k *11/4 a. For some w, y, use the Lagrangean method to derive demand functions by finding the cost-minimizing combinations of k and I in terms of q, w, and y (so the cost function is the objective function, and the production function is the constraint).

The production function of a firm is given by F(K,L) = K^1/3L^1/4. The price of the good is p, the wage is given by w and rental rate of capital is r. Set up the firms profit function and solve the firms profit maximization problem.

Consider the production function given by y = f(L,K) = L^(1/2) K^(1/3) , where y is the output, L is the labour input, and K is the capital input. (a) Does this exhibit constant, increasing, or decreasing returns to scale? (b) Suppose that the firm employs 9 units of capital, and in the short-run, it cannot change this amount. Then what is the short-run production function? (c) Determine whether the short-run production function exhibits diminishing marginal product of labour. (d)...

Given the following production function, show the results in the LaGrange method or Marginal rate of substitution. Given that your budget is limited to 100, and the price of x = 5 and y = 10. Find the following. a) How much of x and y will be produced? b) What is the technical rate of substitution? If x represents humans and y machines, which of them will be working more?
