Given: 1) the cost minimizing output equation Q = 3L1/2 L(Q) = Q2/3 2) the restriction of increasing the output: L/K = 1/4 K = 4L 3) W = $90‚ r = $180 We know that when cost is minimized‚ the total cost in the long run: C(Q) = wL(Q) + rK = wL(Q) + 4rL(Q) = (w+4r)L(Q) = (90+720)Q2/3 = 270Q2 B. (6 pts.) Find the equations for long-run marginal cost (LMC(Q)) and long-run average total cost (LAC(Q)). LMC(Q) = dC(Q)/dQ = 270*2*Q = 540Q‚ LAC(Q) = 270Q2/Q = 270Q. C. (4 pts.) Suppose
