In the short run, the firm's product curves show Select one: a when the MP curve cuts the AP curve from below, the AP curve begins to fall. b. when MP> AP, AP is decreasing. c. TP is at its maximum when MP = 0. d. AP is at its minimum when MP = AP e. TP begins to decrease when AP begins to decrease.

In the long run we can expect the quantity demanded to fall by Select one: a. more than 15%. b. 0%: c. between 0 and 15%. d. 15% e. 100%. Suppose that when a firm hires one additional unit of labour, total product increases from 100 to 110 units of output per month. Marginal product must therefore be Select one a positive. b increasing.
