generally it increases, however, there are some cases where the output actually decreases or remains the same.

How does the government control output in a Communist system?

In a communist system (small 'c'), the government does not allocate any output. In a Communist system (big 'c'), the government, historically, has taken direct control of firms, mandated their production levels (or quotas), given them all the inputs considered necessary in production (from other quotas), and then takes a portion of their output for redistribution.


Explain with diagram the law of variable proportion?

Sometimes referred to as the law of diminishing returns, the law of variable proportions is concerned with the effect of changes in the proportion of the factors of production used to produce output. As the proportion of one input increases relative to all other inputs, at some point there will be decreasing marginal returns from that input. Adding more units of an input, holding all other inputs constant, will at some point cause the resulting increases in production to decrease, or equivalently, the marginal product of that input will decline. Among the inputs held constant is the level of technology used to produce that output. This is an empirical law and is therefore a generalization about the nature of the production process and cannot be proven theoretically (see Friedman, 1976; Stigler, 1966). Applied to management, Friedman argues that the law of variable proportions requires firms to produce by using inputs in such proportions that there are diminishing average returns to each input in production.

Why does an AS curve have three ranges?

The AS curve has three ranges because of different levels of responsiveness of output to changes in price level. In the short run, firms may not be able to adjust prices quickly, leading to a horizontal range. In the intermediate range, firms can adjust prices and output, resulting in a positive sloping range. In the long run, all inputs can be adjusted, leading to a vertical range.

What happens when a purely competitive firms producing cashew discover that P exceeds MC?

Combined output is too little to achieve allocative efficiency. In the long run, supply will increase as firms enter to capture economic profits being earned. Supply increase will reduce the price of cashews.
