  1. If the functions such as the output increases with the same proportional change as all of the existing input then the return of scale is constant, when the output increases by a less proportional change of all the inputs it is called the decreasing rate of return and lastly when the output output increases with a higher proportion change than all the inputs, it is called the increasing rate of return.
  2. Q = A Kα Lβ Nγ


hence the Marginal product function is "Marginal product= Total production\/Total units"
