True/False Marginal cost is the addition to the total cost when more unit of output is being produced.
A firm's production function is given by Q = 40K0.8L0.2 Each unit of capital costs $40 and each unit of labour costs $80. (a) Find the maximum level of output if the total input costs are $400,000. (b) Estimate the increase in production if an addtional $5,000 is made available. (c) Show that the ratio of marginal product to price is the same for both inputs.

(a) Derive the first order condition showing how much labor and capital a producer should use to minimize the total costs of producing a given level of output. (b) What is the second order condition for the producer to achieve (a). (c) Draw a figure showing your answer to part (a) and another figure showing the opposite (i.e., a producer maximizing output with given total costs). How does either situation compare with a producer who has neither a total output constraint or a total cost constraint?
