What is the marginal product of the fifth​ worker? nothing units. ​(Your answer should be a whole number​.)

Respuesta :

Answer:

The marginal product is 5 units.

Explanation:

Marginal product of a labor can be defined as the increase in the output level due to hiring an additional labor.

It is calculated by the ratio change in output to change in labor.

Here, the output level rises by 5 units when labor employed changes by 1 unit.

So,the marginal product of fifth unit of labor will be 5 units.
