Suppose that we have perfectly competitive input markets (for both capital and labor) and output markets. Firm "Tropical Juice" produces orange juice which it sells at $6. The input price that the firm faces is an hourly wage of $5 and the rental rate of $2. Furthermore, the firm currently has a capital stock of 2. Find the labor demanded by the firm in the short run under the following production technologies. a) f(k,l) = k0.1l0.9 b) f(k,l) = max{k,...

A perfectly competitive firm uses a single input (labor) to produce a good according to a production function Q(L) = 2/7 , where Lis the amount of labor it uses. The good sells for $180 per unit (price). The input costs $15 per unit (wage). 1. (20 pts) What is the profit-maximizing amount of input (L)? 2. (10 pts) What is the profit-maximizing amount of output (Q)? 3. (10 pts) How much profit does the firm make when it maximizes...

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...
