Question
If a factory is running at peak production with certain number of labourers then the marginal productivity of labour will be:
Options:
A .  Zero
B .  Negative
C .  Positive
D .  One
Answer: Option A
Answer: (a)
Marginal productivity of labour = $\text"Change in output"/\text"Change in labour"$
Marginal productivity of labour means how much extra production will increase by adding one extra labour.
When a factory is running at peak production, then its production cannot be increased even by adding more labourers. So, the marginal productivity of labour will be zero.
