Chris Potempa · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : C, Explanation :  When the production function is at its peak, marginal output is zero. This is because the marginal product of labor reaches its maximum point at the peak of the production function, and beyond this point, the marginal product of labor starts to decrease. When the marginal product of labor is zero, the total product will be at its maximum point. Therefore, option C (zero) is the correct answer.

When the production function is at its peak,marginal output is ___________.

A) rising
B) falling
C) zero
D) positive
E) negative
