Suppose the production function for coffee (C) is C = min(B,W), where B = beans in pounds and W = water in gallons. Suppose the price of water is .10 per gallon and the price of beans is 10 per pound. The expansion path is
 a. B = 10W
  b. B = .1W
  c. B = W
  d. 10 = B + W

Question 2

Suppose the production function for coffee (C) is C = min(B,W), where B = beans in pounds and W = water in gallons. Suppose the price of water is .10 per gallon and the price of beans is 10 per pound. The cost minimizing combination of beans and water for C = 200 is
 a. B = 200, W = 2000
  b. B = 2000, W = 200
  c. B = 100, W = 100
  d. B = 200, W = 200
