A soybean farmer sells soybeans in a perfectly competitive market and hires labor in a perfectly competitive market. The market price of soybeans is $6 a bushel, the wage rate is $30, the farmer employs eight workers and the marginal product of the eighth worker is 4 bushels. What would you advise this farmer to do?


◦ Do nothing because the wage rate and the marginal product of the last worker hired are equal.
◦ Reduce employment because the wage paid is more than the marginal revenue product.
◦ Increase employment because the wage paid is less than the marginal revenue product.
◦ Reduce the product price so that the wage and marginal revenue product will be equal.
