Suppose that your company is offered a contract to produce 1,000 units of a good X per day. Your company uses labor and capital to produce good X. The quantity of labor used, _L_, is expressed by hours of work, and the wage rate is $10 per hour. The quantity of capital utilized, _K_, is expressed in machine-hours, and the rental rate per machine hour is $40. Thus total cost of production is TC = 10L + 40K.
