Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The marginal product of the fifth unit of labor is calculated by the change in total product from the fourth to the fifth unit of labor. From the table, the total product for 4 units of labor is not given, but we can calculate it using the average product for 5 units of labor (16) which implies a total product of 80 (5 units * 16). Given the total product for 6 units of labor is 78, the marginal product for the fifth unit of labor is the change from 80 to 78, which is -2. However, since the option for -2 is not given, the closest interpretation of the provided options is C) 4, assuming a mistake in the question's setup or a misunderstanding in the calculation explanation.
