A single-product firm intends to produce 30 units of output as cheaply as possible. By using K units of capital and I units of labor, it can produce √K + L units. Suppose the prices of capital and labor are 1 and $20, respectively. The firm's problem is: min K + 20L s. t. √K + L = 30 Find the optimal choices of K and L. You will get points for specifying the: 1. Lagrangean of the problem (Note: There is no need to convert the problem into a maximization of the negative of c(K, L).) 2. First order necessary conditions 3. Second order sufficient conditions (for local optimizer) 4. Value of the objective function at (K*, L*)
