Consider the per-worker production function graph on the right. If there is an increase in capital per hour worked, holding technology constant, then A. there is a movement from D to C. B. there is a movement from A to C C. there is a movement from B to D. D. there is a movement from A to B.

Step 1
- Movement from A to B (OD): This suggests a change in the economic condition or a shift in the production function. - Movement from B to D (OC): Indicates another change following the transition from A to B. - Movement from A to C (OB): This is a direct Show more…

Using the per-worker production function graph from Figures 11.3 and 11.4, show the effect on real GDP per hour worked of an increase in capital per hour worked, holding technology constant. Now, again using the per-worker production function graph, show the effect on real GDP per hour worked of an increase in technology, holding constant the quantity of capital per hour worked.

Answer the following question based upon the production function for the aggregate economy below: Y = F(K, L) = A K^0.7L^0.2. Where Y is aggregate output; A is a measure of available technology, K is capital, and L is labor: Does the production function exhibit Diminishing Returns to Scale, Increasing Returns to Scale, or Constant Returns to Scale?
Andrew D.
The production function Y = F(K,L) states that: The output increases when capital increases and labor decreases. The output increases when an increase in capital causes labor to decrease. The output depends on capital and labor. The output increases when capital and labor decrease.
