Imagine that the production function for tuna cans is given by
q = 6K + 4L
where
q = Output of tuna cans per hour
K = Capital input per hour
L = Labor input per hour
a. Assuming capital is fixed at K = 6, how much L is required to produce 60 tuna cans per hour? To produce 100 per hour?
b. Now assume that capital input is fixed at K = 8; what L is required to produce 60 tuna cans per hour? To produce 100 per hour?
c. Graph the q = 60 and q = 100 isoquants. Indicate the points found in part a and part b. What is the RTS along the isoquants?
