Question 1
Suppose the last unit of a factor of production employed has a marginal product of 12. The factor's price is $8, and the product's competitive market price is $6. This factor's marginal revenue product is
◦ $96.
◦ $36.
◦ $48.
◦ $72.
◦ $6.
Question 2
The table below shows the total production for varying numbers of hours worked producing yo-yos. The firm sells its product and hires its workers in competitive markets.

TABLE 13-4
Refer to Table 13-4. A profit-maximizing firm will continue to hire labour to produce yo-yos until they have equated
◦ the marginal revenue product of an additional hour of labour and the price of yo-yos.
◦ the wage rate per hour and the marginal product of labour.
◦ the marginal product of an additional hour of labour and the price of the yo-yos.
◦ the price of yo-yos and the wage rate per hour.
◦ the wage rate per hour and the value of the yo-yos produced by hiring one additional hour of labour.
