Answer to Question 1

FALSE

Answer to Question 2

The statement is false. Diminishing returns occurs in the short run, as the firm adds units of a variable input to a fixed input. In the long run, there are no fixed inputs. The shape of the long-run average cost curve depends on how costs are affected by changes in the firm's scale of production.
