Economics 500 – Problem Set #3 Consider a firm producing an output Q using the two inputs “labor” (L) and “capital” (K) according to the production function Q = K.5L.5 (i.e.‚ the amount of output produced Q is equal to the square root of K times the square root of L). Suppose that the firm is in a short-run situation in which K is fixed at one unit (K = 1) but labor is variable. Suppose that the user cost of capital‚ r‚ is $48 for each unit of K and that the wage rate‚ w‚ the cost of one unit
