Consider a firm for which production depends on two normal inputs, labour and capital, that are not perfect complements. Initially, the firm faces market prices of w = 10 and r = 8, for labour and capital. These prices then shift to w=7 andr=7.
a) In which direction will the substitution effect change the firm's employment and capital stock?
b) In which direction will the scale effect change the firm's employment and capital stock?
c) Can we say conclusively whether the firm will use more or less labour? More or less capital?
