A film studio in Hollywood produces movies according to the
\nfunction (assume studios can also produce fractions of
\nmovies…think of half a movie as a B-movie or so.) q = F (K, L) = (2\/100)K0.5L0.5. In the short run, capital (studios, gear) is fixed at a level of
\n100. It costs $40 (in thousands) to rent a unit of capital and $10
\n(in thousands) to hire a unit of labor (actors, stuntmen, camera
\ncrew etc.). (a) What is the fixed cost? What is the variable cost as a
\nfunction of output q?1 (2) (b) What is the marginal cost (MC) and the average cost (AC) of a
\nmovie? What is the average variable cost and average fixed cost? (2) (c) Where do the average and marginal cost curves intersect?
\nWhat is the derivative of the AC curve and what value does it take
\nat the intersection? What does it tell you about minimum average
\ncost?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
