Correct Answer: constant returns to scale


Solution : The correct answer is constant returns to scale .

Constant returns to scale occur in Economics when all inputs (such as labour, capital and materials) are doubled as a result, the output also increases by the same factor. This implies that a proportional increase in inputs leads to an equal proportional increase in output. In such a scenario, a firm or production process constantly returns to scale.
