8.Adding more workers without increasing the size of the restaurant will decrease the marginal product of labour.
Answer-B
9.TC=250+10Q
FC=TC when Q=0
FC=250
VC=TC-FC
VC=10Q
Answer-C
10.AFC falls continuously with rise in output and MC first falls then rises.
Answer-A
11.ATC=TC/Q
TC=250+10(50)
TC=750
ATC =750/50
ATC=15
Answer-C

The short run marginal cost curve in the traditional microeconomic model of production eventually rises because of a. diseconomies of scale. b. diminishing marginal revenues. c. rising fixed costs. d. increasing marginal productivity of variable inputs. e. diminishing marginal returns. . If the long-run average cost of production falls as the firm increases its level of output, then the firm exhibits a. constant returns to scale. b. constant marginal costs. c. economies of scale. d. diseconomies of scale. e. diminishing...
If the marginal physical product of more labor is twice as high as the marginal physical product of more machinery, a rational firm should a. reduce the labor used and increase the machinery used if labor costs half as much as machinery. b. reduce the labor used and increase the machinery used only if labor costs exactly twice as much as machinery. c. reduce the labor used and increase the machinery used if labor and machinery cost the same amount....
The short run marginal cost curve in the traditional microeconomic model of production eventually rises because of: A diminishing marginal revenues B diseconomies of scale C increasing marginal productivity of variable inputs. D diminishing marginal returns E. rising fixed costs rising fixed costs
28) The law of diminishing returns, as it applies to labor, means that A) the marginal product of labor will eventually be a horizontal line at zero. B) the average product of labor starts to decline before the marginal product of labor. C) total output eventually decreases. D) the average product of labor increases at a decreasing rate. E) the marginal product of labor eventually decreases as more labor is added with capital held fixed. 29) A firm's short-run labor...
