Determine the new per unit cost of production

Question

Assume that the hypothetical economy had the given relationship among its real domestic output and the input quantities essential for producing that level of output:

 

Suppose that the input price rise from $2 to $3 along with no accompanying change in productivity. Determine the new per unit cost of production? In what direction did the $1 rise in input price push the aggregate supply curve? Determine effect of this shift in aggregate supply upon the price level and the level of real output?

Answer 1

The AS curve would shift leftward. The price level would increase and real output would fall.
