Zorluk: OrtaLong-Run Costs and Production

A telecommunications equipment assembly firm expands its operational scale in the long run by increasing all of its production inputs by 50%50\%. Consequently, its weekly output increases from 1,2001,200 units to 1,9201,920 units. What is the percentage increase in total output achieved by the firm?

Cevap: 60 %

Cevap

The percentage increase in total output achieved by the firm is 60%.
The firm expanded output from 1,200 units to 1,920 units, an absolute gain of 720 units. Dividing 720 by the original output of 1,200 yields 0.60, or 60%. Because the percentage increase in output (60%) exceeds the percentage increase in input scale (50%), the firm is experiencing increasing returns to scale.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Determine the change in output volume
Change in output = 1,920 - 1,200 = 720 units
To calculate percentage growth, find the absolute difference between expanded output and initial output.
2
Calculate the percentage increase relative to initial output
(720 / 1,200) * 100 = 60%
Percentage change measures proportional growth relative to the original baseline output.
