  • New video for this topic- • Short-Run Cost Curves ...
    In this video I explain the relationship between marginal product and marginal cost. The bonus round explains a numeric example that shows that MP and MC are mirror images of each other. Please keep in mind that these clips are not designed to teach you the key concepts. These videos are a review tool to help you better understand what you learned in class.

    Sal normally hits the mark in Khanacademy, but honestly, I find Mr. Clifford's econ videos much easier to understand than Sal's. Maybe it's because Mr. Clifford's lessons are catered to high schoolers in AP classes (Current high school senior). Thank you it helps so much!! Studying for academic decathlon :)

    I have been self studying micro-econ on and off for the last 3 months after the 9-5 job. I will be testing out in the next day or so. I have to say that this has been an enthralling review of the material. Thank you so much!

    So marginal product is the change in quantity produced(output)? And Marginal cost can be equal to the change in TC over the MP?
    Which would also explain the inverse relationship between MC and MP...

    but total cost is not zero when output is zero.because there is some total fixed cost (TFC) incurred on fixed factor.

  • @viktordessov3647
    @viktordessov3647 8 років тому

    How does one come up with the numbers of the additional output, accomplished through each new worker, as they seem to be the key information here? There doesn't seem to be any logic behind them. Is there a formula or should it be merely based on conclusions which others in the same area of production have reached beforehand?

    • @paulh965
      @paulh965 7 років тому

      Viktor Dessov The logic behind it is that it is way more productive to have two employees versus one employee. For instance, you run a restaurant but you only have one employee working for you. This one employee will need to multitask such as cashiering, cooking, washing dishes, etc and you will not have an effective operating business. However if the owner hires additional worker, he or she will contribute a lot of additional output to the business by assisting the existing employee.

    but how could calculate the cost if number of hours colum added + number of workers example as input and wage is the only fixed variable input
    no.hours =10 no.workers =10 TP=10
    how could we find the total cost and marginal output(MP) ,marginal cost and so on if this was the case. ...???

    I understand that this is covered in the video but could someone plainly state what the difference between marginal cost and marginal product is? Thank you

    • @pranavharathi408
      @pranavharathi408 9 років тому +5

      TigerHogan Marginal product is defined as the output produced by an additional unit of labor, whereas marginal cost is the cost of the additional unit of labor.

  • @elander86
    @elander86 13 років тому

    Why does each extra worker contribute less? In a factory where they make matches for example, they just dip the little wooden sicks into phosphorous and that's it? 1 worker makes 100 day and 2 workers make 200 a day?

    • @bassk9939
      @bassk9939 8 років тому

      His total costs in this example only consists of wages, which he made to be $10 per worker. So you times $10 by the number of workers and that is your TC.
