Respuesta :

Answer:

7,000 pounds

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Shrimps Bubba catches per year = 4,000 pounds

Shrimps that Bobby can catch per year = 3,000 pounds

Therefore,

The marginal contribution of Bobby in the output if Bobby is hired is 3,000 pounds of shrimp

= Output of Bubba per year + Output of Bobby per year

= 4,000 pounds + 3,000 pounds

= 7,000 pounds
