In the short-run, we assume that capital is a fixed input and
labor is a variable input, so the firm can increase output only by
increasing the amount of labor it uses. In the short-run, the
firm's production function is
q = f(L, K),
where q is output, L is workers, and
K
is the fixed number of units of capital.
A specific equation for the production function is given
by:
q = 8LK + 5L2 − 13L3
