The diagram below shows the MRP curve for a firm producing copper plumbing pipe. The factor of production being considered here is hours of labour.



FIGURE 13-1

Refer to Figure 13-1. Suppose this firm is facing MRP1, a wage rate of $16 per hour and is employing 100 units of labour. At this level of employment,


◦ the last unit of labour is adding more to the firm's cost than it is adding to the firm's revenue, so it should reduce the use of labour.
◦ the last unit of labour is adding less to the firm's cost than it is adding to the firm's revenue, so it should increase the use of labour.
◦ the firm has shifted the MRP curve to MRP2.
◦ the last unit of labour contributes as much to the firm's costs as to the firm's revenues and so the firm should not change its use of labour.
◦ the firm has shifted the MRP curve to MRP3.

Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
