  1. Write down firm Bs profit maximization problem. Firm B has N inputs: G1, G2, . . . GN1, GN . We can denote the ith input as Gi. The cost to rent/hire the ith input is i. The firm has Cobb-Douglas Production Function, where the power coefficient for each ith input is i. As before, the price of output is p, and the firm makes Y units of output.
