Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

No, the firm is not currently maximizing profit. The firm should hire labor and capital such that MPL/PL is equal to MPK/PK. In this case, MPL/PL (3) is greater than MPK/PK (2.75). Thus, the firm should hire more labor (which would lower MPL) and less capital (which would raise MPK).
