Answer to Question 1

The higher pay would have increased Mr. Eisenberg's incentive to make The Social Network rather than the other movie and perhaps affected his choice to make The Social Network rather than the other movie. The higher pay would have increased the incentive of the producer to decrease the expense of other aspects of the movie so the producer might have chosen to reduce the pay of the other stars in the movie.

Answer to Question 2

The average product function will be horizontal. Since the marginal product stays the same the average product will never change.
