Answer:
The total cost of producing a given level of output is:____.
d. minimized when the ratio of marginal product to input price is equal for all inputs.
Explanation:
With the above situation, the marginal cost (input price) = the marginal revenue (marginal product). Â The producer can then maximize profit if it can lower its average total cost per unit below the marginal cost for producing one additional unit of its product. Â In all cost situations, it is better for the producer to have the total revenue exceeding the total costs, at all times, but more especially with increasing production.
