If the wage rate declines to $15 per hour, the firm employs more labor and the marginal product of labor declines to 20 units. Assuming the rental rate of capital remains the same, what happens to the amount of capital used by the firm?
A) Decreases
B) Increases
C) No change
D) We do not have enough information to answer this question.
