      Question

      Under the condition of "Product Exhaustion" (Euler's

      Theorem), if a firm operates under Increasing Returns to Scale and pays each factor its marginal product:
      A Total revenue will exactly equal total factor payments Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Total factor payments will exceed total revenue Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C There will be a surplus left for the entrepreneur Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D The firm will reach its break-even point Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Euler’s Theorem states that if the function is homogeneous of degree n, then n * Q = (MPL * L) + (MPK * K). If n > 1 (IRS), then the sum of marginal payments is greater than the output (Q). This implies that paying factors their marginal product is financially impossible for the firm without a loss.
