A large company in the communication and publishing industry hs quantified the relationship between the price of one of its products and the demand for this product as Price = 160 -0.01 xDemand for an annual printing of this particular product. The foxed costs per year (ie. per printing) = $4T 000 and the variable cost per unit = $35. What is the maximum profit that can be achieved? What is the unit price at this point of optimal demand? Demand is not expected to be more than 7,000 units per year. The maximum profit that can be achieved is S. (Round to the nearest dolar.) The unit price at the point of optimal demand is S per unit (Round to the nearest cent)

Thranduil company’s market research department is working on the pricing of a product. The field research shows that average demand is expected to be 8000 units at price 50 TL. From this point, each 1 TL change in price will negatively affect demand with a magnitude of 100 units. Fixed and variable costs are confronted for producing the product. According to the information obtained from the financial department, 200,000 TL is the estimate of fixed costs and 20 TL is the estimate of variable costs per unit produced. Assume that all units produced are sold.Which of the following prices is the one that maximizes the company's profit?
