    Question

    Constant returnfs to scale (CRS) is a property of production function that holds when_________.

    A.

    a proportional increase in all inputs may results in an increase in output by less than or more than the proportion

    B.

    a proportional increase in all inputs results in an increase in output by more than the proportion

    C.

    a proportional increase in all inputs results in an increase in output by the same proportion

    D.

    a proportional increase in all inputs results in an increase in output by less than the proportion

    Correct option is C

    The Correct Answer is: (c) a proportional increase in all inputs results in an increase in output by the same proportion

    Constant Returns to Scale (CRS) is a property of a production function where a proportional increase in all inputs results in an increase in output by the same proportion.

    Information Booster:

    • If inputs are scaled up by a factor kkk, the output also increases by the same factor kkk.
    • Mathematically, if the production function is Q=f(L,K)Q = f(L, K)Q=f(L,K), then for CRS:f(kL,kK)=k⋅f(L,K)f(kL, kK) = k \cdot f(L, K)f(kL,kK)=kf(L,K)where LLL is labor, KKK is capital, and kkk is the scaling factor.

    This property indicates that the production process is neither inefficient nor overly efficient in scaling inputs to outputs.
