Presentation transcript:

slide 0 Marginal product of labor (MPL) def: The extra output the firm can produce using an additional unit of labor (holding other inputs fixed): MPL = F (K, L +1) – F (K, L)

slide 1 Exercise: compute & graph MPL a. Determine MPL at each value of L b. Graph the production function c. Graph the MPL curve with MPL on the vertical axis and L on the horizontal axis LYMPL 00n.a. 110? 219? ? 540? 645? 749? 852? 954? 1055?

slide 2 answers:

slide 3 Y output The MPL and the production function L labor 1 MPL 1 1 As more labor is added, MPL  Slope of the production function equals MPL

slide 4 Consumption ( C ) durable goods last a long time ex: cars, home appliances non-durable goods last a short time ex: food, clothing services work done for consumers ex: dry cleaning, air travel. def: the value of all goods and services bought by households. Includes:

slide 5 U.S. Consumption, 2001

slide 6 Investment ( I ) def1: spending on [the factor of production] capital. def2: spending on goods bought for future use. Includes:  business fixed investment spending on plant and equipment that firms will use to produce other goods & services  residential fixed investment spending on housing units by consumers and landlords  inventory investment the change in the value of all firms’ inventories

slide 7 U.S. Investment, 2001

slide 8

slide 9 Government spending ( G )  G includes all government spending on goods and services.  G excludes transfer payments (e.g. unemployment insurance payments), because they do not represent spending on goods and services.

slide 10 Government spending, 2001

slide 11 Net exports ( NX = EX - IM ) def: the value of total exports (EX) minus the value of total imports (IM)

slide 12 CASE STUDY The Reagan Deficits  Reagan policies during early 1980s:  increases in defense spending:  G > 0  big tax cuts:  T < 0  According to our model, both policies reduce national saving:
