Question 9 - A brick manufacturing firm faces demand function given by P = -2Q + 60, while the production function is given by Q = L½, where, Q id units of brick, P is price per unit and L is the total labour employed. The marginal Revenue Product of Labour (MRPL) is defined as dR/dL. What is the MRPL is this case?

Question 10 - National income accounting states that Y = C + I + G; income = consumption plus investment plus government spending. Consumption depends upon after-tax income and hence income depends upon the tax rate t. Solving these equations for particular values of the parameters yields the equation
Y = 300/(0.2+0.8t)
Given this, what is the value of the tax multiplier, i.e. dY/dt?
a. -240/(0.2+0.8t)
b. 1/(1-0.8)
c. -300/(0.2+0.8t)2
d. -240/(0.2+0.8t)2
