Plain-text version

When Cobb-Douglas production function is Q= A L⁰·⁵K⁰·⁵ what will be total production when total factor productivity is 8, L=25, K=64. (A) 340 (B) 320 (C) 623 (D) 420

Also written as: When Cobb-Douglas production function is Q= A L^(0.5)K^(0.5) what will be total production when total factor productivity is 8, L=25, K=64.
