The question states that the MRTS of capital for labor is greater than r/w. Note that this is different from the MRTS of labor for capital, which is what is used in Chapters 6 and 7. The MRTS of labor for capital equals MPK/MPL. So it follows that MPK/MPL > r/w or, written another way, MPK/r > MPL/w. These two ratios should be equal to minimize cost. Since the manufacturer gets more marginal output per dollar from capital than from labor, she should use more capital and less labor to minimize the cost of production.
