Calculate the marginal and average product of labor for this production function. The average product of labor, APL, is equal to Q L . The marginal product of labor, MPL, is equal to   Q L , the change in output divided by the change in labor input. For this production process we have: L Q APL MPL 0 0 _ _ 1 10 10 10 2 18 9 8 3 24 8 6 4 28 7 4 5 30 6 2 6 28 4.7 -2 7 25 3.6 -3 b. Does this production function exhibit diminishing returns to labor? Explain. This production process exhibits diminishing returns to labor. The marginal product of labor, the extra output produced by each additional worker, diminishes as workers are added, and is actually negative for the sixth and seventh workers. c. Explain intuitively what might cause the marginal product of labor to become negative
