2) A graph showing all of combinations of capital and labour available for a given total cost is known as:

  1. Isoquant
  2. Expenditure set
  3. Isocost line
  4. Budget constraint

 

3) Which of the following indicates optimal consumption point for the consumer

  1. Py/Px> ∆Y/∆X = MUx/MUy
  2. Px/Py = zero = MUx/MUy
  3. Px/Py = ∆X/∆Y > MUx/MUy
  4. Px/Py = ∆Y/∆X > MUx/MUy

 

4) An isoquant that is further from the origin represents

  1. Lesser output
  2. None of above
  3. Greater output
  4. No change in output

 

5) In-case of increasing returns to scale isoquants:

  1. Undergo no change
  2. Become closer and closer to each other
  3. Are equally spaced

  2. Diminishing marginal returns
  3. Marginal rate of technical substitution
