In a Cobb-Douglas production function the marginal product of labor will increase if: -the quantity of capital increases. -average labor productivity decreases. -capital's share of output increases. -the quantity of labor increases

the quantity of capital increases

According to the neoclassical theory of distribution, in an economy described by a Cobb-Douglas production function, when average labor productivity is growing rapidly: -economic profits will be positive. -workers will experience high rates of real wage growth. -labor's share of income will be decreasing. -labor's share of total income will be increasing

workers will experience high rates of real wage growth

If the consumption function is given by C = 150 + 0.85Y and Y increases by 1 unit, then C increases by: 0.15 units. 0.5 units. 1 unit. 0.85 units

0.85 units

At any particular point in time, the output of the economy: -is fixed because the supplies of capital and labor and the technology are fixed. -varies because the supplies of capital and labor vary. -varies because the technology for turning capital and labor into goods and services varies. -is fixed because the demand for goods and services is fixed

is fixed because the supplies of capital and labor and the technology are fixed

Assume that an increase in consumer confidence raises consumers' expectations of future income and thus the amount they want to consume today for any given income. This shift, in a neoclassical economy, will: -raise investment and lower the interest rate. -raise both investment and the interest rate. -lower investment and raise the interest rate. -lower both investment and the interest rate.

lower investment and raise the interest rate

According to the neoclassical theory of distribution, total output is divided between payments to capital and payments to labor depending on their: -relative political power. -supply. -marginal productivities. -equilibrium growth rates.

marginal productivities

In equilibrium, total investment equals: -private saving. -household saving. -public saving. -national saving
