A farm manager is trying to estimate the fixed costs associated with their crop production. The farm manager owns 500 acres of farmland that were purchased for $750 per acre in 1980, are currently worth $2,000 per acre (based on a market-basis balance sheet), and could be cash rented for $150 per acre. The current per-acre opportunity cost of the farmland is therefore best estimated as:

Marginal physical product must always be greater than average physical product.

A production possibility curve shows all combinations of two outputs which can be produced from a fixed amount of input.

The table below gives combinations of silage and grain (inputs) that will produce 20,000 pounds of milk per year (output). Ration Number  Grain (lbs.)  Silage (lbs.)  Substitution Ratio  1 4,000 11,628 XXX  2 4,500 9,880 3.50 3 5,000 8,322 3.12 4 5,500 6,935 2.77 5 6,000 5,700 2.47 6 6,500 4,598 2.20 If grain costs $0.15/lb and silage costs $0.06/lb, what is the least-cost combination of grain and silage for the feed ration?

Based on the table above, what is the marginal cost that should appear in cell **B**?

The table below summarizes a production process in which input is used to produce output. Input  Output  Total physical product  Average physical product  Marginal physical product  0 0 0 XX  XX  1 15 15 15 15 2 27 27 13.5 **B** 3 36 36 **A**  **C** 4 42 42 10.5 6 What is the value for APP that should appear in cell **A**?

An enterprise relationship in which increasing the scale of one enterprise actually causes an increase in the production from another enterprise is called:

Contracting muscles store all the ATP needed to sustain prolonged contraction.

A motor unit always contains thousands of muscle fibers.
