What is the law of variable proportion concerned with?

Short run production function

In the short run production function, what happens if one variable input is increased while other inputs are held constant?

Marginal product of the variable input first increases, then diminishes

What does the short run production function assume about at least one input factor?

It's fixed

What does the law of diminishing returns state in relation to the short run production function?

Marginal product of the variable input diminishes as more units are added

What characterizes the short run in terms of production?

All inputs are fixed

What role does technology play in the short run production function?

It directly affects total product and marginal product

In the short run production function, what does the total product curve illustrate?

The relationship between output level and quantity of the variable input

Which concept best explains why adding more units of a variable input eventually leads to diminishing returns in the short run production function?

Law of diminishing returns

What happens to marginal cost as more units of a variable input are added in the short run production function?

It first decreases, then increases

What best describes fixed inputs in the short run production function?

Inputs that are completely unchangeable
