Explain your methods in detail

Explanation / Answer

Price of the factor of production should be set such that it is equal to the Marginal revenue product.Factor market equilibrium condition:P=MRP

For labour

Price of labour=$21.

P=MRP at 3 units of labour

Fot capital

Price of capital=$30

P=MRP at 6 units of capital.

Therefore profit maximizing condition:(3L,6K)
