個經成本極小化問題 - 經濟

Table of Contents

Nadine has production function 2*X1+X2. If the factor
price are $8 for factor 1 and $5 for factor 2, how much
will it cost her to produce 70 units of output?

a.$1470
b.$280
c.$350
d.$910
e.$315

答案是b.

我的算法是:

TRS=X2/X1=8/5
X2=8/5*X1代入product function
→70=2*X1+8/5*X1
→X1=175/9 X2=280/9
cost=2*175/9+280/9=40.....

答案跟選項完全不符合阿!!
請問我的做法哪裡出錯了呢....?
希望版上的高手能幫幫忙解決我的疑惑
謝謝O_Q

求解是求min 8X1+5X2 st 70=2X1+X2
因為是線性 所以要嘛全部生產X1

要嘛全部生產x2 故X1=35 或是 X2=70
然後看哪個生產成本低就選哪一個
