Quick Guide to Use the Calculator
- Enter the initial output (Y0) and final output (Y1) for the period.
- Input the initial input (I0) and final input (I1) for the same period.
- Click on the “Calculate” button to obtain the marginal product.
- You can reset the calculator by clicking the “Reset” button.
Formula
Marginal Product = Change in Output Produced ÷ Change in Input
Where change in Output produced = Output production at the end of the period (Y1) – Output production at the start of the period (Y0)
And
Change in Input = Input at the end of the period (I1) – Input at the start of the period (I0)
What is Marginal Product?
The marginal product represents the change in output resulting from a one-unit change in input, holding all other inputs constant.
