               Law Of Variable Proportions


               1. The law of variable proportion states that as we increase the quantity of only one
               input, keeping other inputs fixed, the total product increases at an increasing rate
               (convex shape) in the beginning, then increases at diminishing rate (concave shape)
               and after a level of output ultimately fall
