ii. A multinational refreshments firm has 68 monetary units available to produce the maximum possible number of bottles. Its production function is q(x, y) = 60x + 90y − 2x 2 − 3y 2 where x and y are the required inputs. The inputs prices are px = 2 m.u. and py = 4 m.u. repectively. Given the budget restriction, maximize the production of bottles. By means of the Lagrange multiplier how will the maximum number of bottles produced be modified if the budget is increased in one unit (or if it is decreased)?
