i wish you were my professor!

[@economicsfun]

Well thanks! Good luck in your classes too.

my professor just come to class and talks about his gym and other stuff and uses example for that particular chapter and when we want to do the hw, we have to refer to youtube and of course your videos:)

i'm convinced i could have watched an afternoon of these videos rather than spent two weeks of sleepless nights for my upcoming exam. ;) thanks!

[@tribefan1989]

Thanks for the help! I learn better from your videos than I do in 2.5 hours of class every week!

[@Snapattack2]

I just wanted to say thanks, you could not make it any easier. I saw other vids for this topic and I could not get them. I did with yours. Its not easy going back to school when your older but u helped my brain to get it. Thanks again.

Thank you so much, its kind of hard trying to understand this without having an instructor, dang online courses. Helped me figure out my homework for the week easily.

sir, but how have he come up with 18 on marginal product of labor, when we compute (336-60/8-1) = (14/1) = 14. then how have come up with 18 and 8. kindly assist me on that answer?

Diminishing marginal returns sets in when slope of the marginal product line equals zero and after that marginal product is negative. I would encourage you to watch the entire playlist (there are only three videos). You should even try to watch the calculus proof. I included a link to the playlist in the video description.

Come teach at montreal canada please. You, hands down , are wayyy better than my current microeconomics professor. His explanations are vague and so difficult to understand. If i didnt have to have 12 units per term i really wouldn't take microeconomics.

has anyone notice for the marginal product in doing my calculation instead of 18 i get 14 and instead of 8 i arrived at 6 unit....when u cal 336-322/8-7=14 and not 18 and even when u cal it the long way i would still get 14 units. (336-322)/8/(8-7)=14, likewise (342-336)/(9-8)=6 and not 8 unit..so please help me out here someone..

thanks for yr video, it really helpful

Thanks prof 👨‍🏫

[@economicsfun]

Typically in this exercises total product is given. You can calculate total product by multiplying average product time output (quantity produced).

How do we calculate total capital if it's not given when there are two fixed factors of production given in units ( units of Land and units of capital)

[@ashleybyers3612]

With total product, are those figures usually given? I was recently given an exercise where we were only given the amount of labor and the columns for total product, average product, and marginal product were blank. How would you suggest completing such an exercise where the only thing given is the amount of labor? Thanks!

[@wadjo1]

was there a graph givin in that exercise?

[@alexlanglois1975]

I was also given a table without total product of labor given in some spots, without a graph.

[@stellamuthama6890]

How did you get the figures of the total product.

[@kashifatif1]

When you say slope of a curve for a particular value of labour is the marginal product, are you not confusing the nature of the data you work with, i.e discrete (which is the data used for production, and hence the need for average rate of change between successive units of labour) rather than continuous (instantaneous change)?

[@aniyamuhammad1438]

Hello sir, I have a question... is it short run or in the long run?

[@shunanu]

where does the output of diminishing returns set in?

[@economicsfun]

The only one I have on international trade is the edgeworth box diagram. I am in the process of creating more videos for international trade. I just added a link in the video description of this video.

[@riehitsuji3968]

Thanks a lot for this video. It helps me a lot on my lessons especially how to compute for marginal product. But i think there is something wrong in the computation of marginal product of labor 8 and 9?

[@shohruhrasulov5216]

yep, it should be 14 and 6

yeah, thanks. :)

What does it mean in marginal product reaching 10??

[@07sohair]

can you put marginal product and average product on the same graph? Or did you just do them separately to distinguish them??

[@shubhamarora1287]

Yes i can put TP,MP and AP together in a graph.. mail me at [e-mail] and i will click a photo and attach it for you if u wanted :)

[@jeremyfatusin307]

What is the amount of capital is different

[@economicsfun]

Marginal product (MP) and average product (AP) will be equal only if total product is not changing. Typical MP and AP do not equal each other.

[@collinpaul1271]

Exactly right At the point of tangency...good stuff 🔥

in marginal product, 8, 9 and 10 amount of labor I get 14, 4 and 2 respectively by using this formula. How do you get 18, 8 and -2 ? It's biased me >.< . Please help me out. Thanks

[@riehitsuji3968]

I got marginal product of 14, 6 and -2 on labor 8,9,10.
