The AP Micro review game where marginal stops meaning average

598 terms · all six units · free, no student accounts

One round from AP Microeconomics — Unit 3: Production, Cost, and the Perfect Competition Model

Four students see

Marginal Product (MP)

The additional output produced by adding one more unit of a variable input, such as labor.

The fifth sees

One-more-worker-output

That is all they get — a hint, not the term the other four are holding — and they have to describe it first.

The Mole knows it involves one more worker. They can talk about hiring somebody and getting more output and sound completely right — while describing average product, which is the total divided by the workers. Marginal is only the next one. Micro is that distinction, over and over.

Recognizing a word is not knowing it

Nearly every mistake in this course is marginal being read as average. A student who says it out loud finds out in four seconds. A student filling in bubbles finds out in May.
