Question 36 / 96:
Describe a scenario in which a doubling of inputs more than doublesthe output. What do economists call this phenomenon?
If I double the amount of time, raw pasta, etc. that I devote to
the task, I can more than double the amount of dinner I prepare.
That's why it makes sense for people living in a household to take
turns making dinner (and for restaurants to open). This phenomenon
is called "economies of scale."
