Producer Theory (LR) Flashcards
1
Q
Isoquants + how would they look on a diagram?
A
Describes the possible combinations of factors (L and K), that when used efficiently, generate a given level of output
K on y-axes, L on x-axes, similar to indifference curves
2
Q
What is the gradient of an isoquant known as?
A
MRTS
3
Q
MRTS?
A
Describes the change in the units of K required to keep Q constant, following a unit increase in L
4
Q
MRTS formula?
A
- MPL/MPK
5
Q
Isocost lines?
A
Describes the possible combinations of inputs that are part of (constitute) a given TC
6
Q
Isocost line formula?
A
wL + rK, where r = capital rental rate
