1. A production function measures the relation between: the quantity of inputs and the quantity of output
2. Manager-determined prices are: both "not determined by the forces of demand and supply" and "exogenous
variables in a demand equation"
3. The estimated demand for a good is Q̂ = 4,800 − 16 P− 0.65 M− 1.5 PR
where Q is the quantity demanded of the good, P is the price of the good, M is income, and PR is the price of related
good R. The coefficient on P: is negative as dictated by the law of demand
4. A short-run production function assumes that: at least one input is a fixed input
5. Suppose that you run a house-painting company and currently have 2 workers painting a total of 4 houses per
month. If you hire a third worker, 6 houses can be painted per month. If you hire a fourth worker, 9 houses can be
painted, and a fifth and sixth worker will increase the number of houses painted to 13 and 15, respectively. Diminishing
returns: set in when the sixth worker is hired

, The average product of labor when 4 units of labor are employed is: 19 7. Given the table below, if labor is fixed at
three units, how much does the third unit of capital add to total output?

Amount of total output produced from various combinations of labor and capital.: 60
8. A market-determined price: both "is determined by the intersection of demand and supply curves" and "is an
endogenous variable"
9. One problem with consumer interviews is that: both "the sample may not be a representative sample" and
"response bias"
10. The following linear demand specification is estimated for Conlan Enterprises, a price-setting firm: Q = a + bP
+ cM + dPR
where Q is the quantity demanded of the product Conlan Enterprises sells, P is the price of that product, M is income,
and PR is the price of a related product.
The results of the estimation are presented below:
