Which of the following equations is correct:
(1 Point) AP= Q/L MP= Q/ ΔL MP= ΔQ/L none of these 2.When MP increases then TP (1 Point) increases at an increasing rate reaches its maximum increases at a decreasing rate none of these 3.Short run and long run are differentiated on the basis of fixed time period. (1 Point) True False 4.Point of inflexion refers to the point from where (1 Point) slope of TP changes TP stops increasing at an increasing rate slope of AP changes Both a and b 5._______________ is only a long period possibility. (1 Point) Returns to Factor Returns to Scale 6.An intelligent producer can avoid the occurrence of diminishing returns to a factor even with the existing technology. (1 Point) True False 7.Marginal Product can be positive, zero or negative, but average product is always positive. (1 Point) True False 8.It is because of the law of variable proportions that MP curve makes an inverted -U (1 Point) True False 9.Read the statements given below and choose one of the correct alternatives:
Assertion (A) : Variable factors can be changed in the short
run. Reason (R): Variable factors are not required in case of zero output. (1 Point) Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is the correct explanation of Assertion (A). Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is not the correct explanation of Assertion (A). Assertion (A) is true but Reason (R) is false. Assertion (A) is false but Reason (R) is true. 10.Marginal Product is also called (1 Point) Total product Gross Product Average Product Incremental Product 11.Fall in MP must lead to a fall in AP as well. (1 Point) True False 12.Which of the following equations is correct (1 Point) MP= TPn- TPn-2 AP= TP * L TP= AP/L MP= ΔTP/ ΔL 13.Variable proportions type production function exists: (1 Point) when with change in the level of output there is a change in the factor ratio when scale of production changes with change in the level of output both a and b 14.i) MP increases a) TP is maximum ii) MP decreases but (+ve) b) TP starts falling iii) MP zero c) TP increases at an increasing rate iv) MP becomes (-ve) d) TP increases at a diminishing rate (1 Point) i-a, ii-b, iii-c, iv-d i-d, ii-c, iii-b, iv-a i-c, ii-d, iii-a, iv-b i-c, ii-b, iii-a, iv-d 15.Stages of production are the consequences of (1 Point) Law of Diminishing Marginal Rate of Transformation Law of Diminishing Marginal utility Law of Variable Proportions Law of Diminishing returns to scale 16.Match the following:
i) Long run production function a) TPn-TPn-1
ii) Short period b) As long as MP> AP iii) Marginal Product c) Production capacity remains constant iv) AP increases d) Stage of increasing returns v) Increasing MP e) Factor ratio doesn't change with change in the volume of output (1 Point) i-e, ii-c, iii-a, iv-d, v-b i-e, ii-c, iii-a, iv-b, v-d i-e, ii-d, iii-b,-iv-c,-v-a i-d, ii-b, iii-c, iv-a, v-e
