问题单项选择题

The Zaxon Company produces one product and labor is the only variable resource in the production process. In the short run, Zaxon faces a horizontal demand curve at $20 per unit. The average product of labor in the short run is given in the following table:

A．Resouce Units

B．Average Product of Labor

C．1

D．25

E．2

F．22.5

G．3

H．20

I．4

J．17.5

答案

参考答案：B

解析：

Average Product Total Product Marginal Product

Resource Units Marginal Revenue Product

25 2525

22.5 45 20

20 60 15

17.57010

1500=25×$20

2 400=20×$20

3300=15×$20

4 200=10×$20

The short-run demand curve for a resource is its marginal revenue produce schedule. The price of a resource unit must be less than or equal to the MRP. Since the resource price is $ 350 per unit, the company will employ 2 units in production because MRP of $ 499 ＞ resource cost of $ 350. For a price taker MR = P.
