Impact of Input Price Changes on Production Decisions

An olive oil producer uses a robotic technology where each complete system requires one worker and 400 kWh of energy to produce 100 liters of oil per day. Suppose the market price of electricity doubles, while wages and the selling price of olive oil remain constant. Analyze how this change would impact the producer's short-term decision on how many systems to operate. Furthermore, evaluate potential long-term strategies the producer could adopt if high electricity prices are expected to persist.
