what's the x-axis and y-axis of the graph?

[intromediateecon]

@hillaryishillary The y-axis is Quantity per unit of Labor and the x-axis is Units of Labor (we usually measure units of labor in terms of worker-hours. Hence, a 4 person team working an 8 hour shift would count as L = 32 (8*4).

@intromediateecon thanks!

Thanks for this, I'm taking the Microeconomics CLEP tomorrow, and these videos are really helping me put the last blocks in place.

[kilimitinu]

very helpful, easy but really constructive explanation!

Although your beisbol example got me confused at first!

[KaiChippi]

thank you, you're a good man

[mitrived]

Like the examples you chose.

good video. suggestion: you could show the TP (or production) function before the marginal and average products.

[intromediateecon]

@vik238 Thanks for the suggestion.

That's actually how I do it in the book (see page 77). The intuition for drawing TP is identical to drawing marginal product, so I thought that it wasn't worth the board space for this video, but your point is well taken. If I ever re-film the videos, I may incorporate your suggestion.
