  • A Loss
  • B Super normal profit
  • C Normal profit
  • D Higher revenue
Correct Answer: Option B
Explanation:



MRP = Marginal Revenue Product
ARP = Average Revenue Product
Therefore, if the wage rate is less than the ARP, the firm will make super normal profit. As a result, new forms will enter the industry and the demand for labour will increase which will push up the wage rate so as to be equal to the ARP.
