The marginal product initially rises due to the efficient utilization of fixed resources when additional units of a variable input are added, leading to increased output. As more units are added, however, diminishing returns set in; each additional input contributes less to overall production because the fixed resources become over-utilized or congested. This results in a decline in marginal product, as the benefits of adding more input diminish. Ultimately, this interplay between efficiency and resource limitations explains the initial rise followed by the decline in marginal product.
true
Marginal cost is equal to the ratio of change in total cost or total variable cost to change in quantity of output. Marginal cost increases as total product increases since it reflects the law of diminishing marginal returns.
Does your marginal cost rise as you spend more hours supplying services
Interest rates are simply the price of money. When inflation declines, interest rates typically decline also.
Both would decrease.

When Marginal benefit (MB) exceed Marginal cost (MC). The society values the additional unit of product more than the cost of producing it. In this case, Net benefit will increase as long as firms produces more until the point where MB = MC. (Because every additional output will add more to MB than to MC, Net benefit will rise)

Both would decrease.
As we decide to choose more units of anything, the opportunity cost of each additional unit will rise. This means that the opportunity cost of the second unit will be greater than that of the first unit. The opportunity cost of the third unit will be greater than that of the second unit. And so forththe law of opportunity cost states that the more of a product that is produced,the greater is its opportunity cost,hence increasing marginal opportunity cost in simple terms refers to an extra or additional opportunity cost of foregoing other products to produce a unit of another product
The quantity of product X supplied can be expected to rise with a fall in:
Yeast.
The marginal cost increases as production levels rise because of diminishing returns. This means that as more units are produced, the additional cost of producing each additional unit also increases. This is due to factors such as limited resources, increased labor costs, and inefficiencies in the production process.
Overall because of diminishing marginal returns. The marginal cost curve, MC, decreases until diminishing marginal returns set in and and it begins to increase. When the MC is below the AVC, the AVC must fall. When the MC is above the AVC, the AVC must rise. In otherwords, if the marginal cost is decreasing the average cost must be decreasing as well and vice versa.
