Marginal product is the change in production for one unit change in variable factor, say labour. It’s expressed as MPL = `(∆Q)/(∆L)`.

उत्तर २

Marginal product is the difference made to total product by producing one more unit of output.

Symbolically, MP = TPn − TPn-1 where TPn = Total Product of n units.

Or MP = TPn+1 − TPn

TPn-1 = Total Product of (n − 1) units.

TPn+1 = Total Product of (n + 1) units.
