Assume the total product of three workers is 120 and the total product of four workers is 160. The average product of four workers is ________, and the marginal product of the fourth worker is ________.
A) 10; 40
B) 30; 10
C) 40; 40
D) 160; 40
Answer
average product of n workers =total product of n worker /
n
AP=TP/n
=160/4
=40 units
========
marginal product of n th worker =total output of n workers - total
output of n-1 workers
MP(n)=TP(n)-TP(n-1)
MP(4)=160-120=40 units
=====
the average product and marginal product is 40 units
Option C
Assume the total product of three workers is 120 and the total product of four workers...

Answer the question on the basis of the following information: Number of Total Marginal Workers Product Product 0 8 0 8 10 2 3 4 5 6 25 30 3 34 Refer to the data. The marginal product of the fourth worker:
If total output is 40 units when 4 workers are employed and 48 units when 5 workers are employed, then: a average product is 10 units when 4 workers are employed. b. the marginal product of the 5th worker is 8 units. c. average product must be falling because the marginal product of the 5th worker is lower than the average product for 4 workers. all of the above are true.

SECTION# NAME PRINT LAST NAME, FIRST NAME Suppose 9 workers can repair 36 television sets per day. If a tenth worker is hired and the each worker repairs, on average, 4 T.V. sets per day when nine workers are hired average product must be rising because the marginal product of the tenth worker 6. total number of repaired T.V. sets increases to 39, then: a. the marginal product of the tenth worker is 3.9 T.V, sets b. is greater than...
