2. For the following total revenue and total cost functions of a firm: TR = 800Q – 10Q2 TC = (2/3)Q3 -30Q2 + 672Q +4000 (a) Determine the level of output at which the firm maximizes total profit (b) Calculate the profit (need step by step, please)
A firm has the following revenue and cost functions. TR = 90 Q – Q2 TC = 2Q 2+ 30 Q Determine the quantity level at which the firm maximizes its total profit. (Hint: use marginal revenue = marginal cost rule)
3. Gazelle Corp, a sports shoe firm, is currently selling 800 pairs of a certain shoe per month. It is currently charging a price of £40, but this has recently been reduced from £45, because sales were only reaching 750 units per month. Its total costs are £28,000 per month, and these have risen £1500 due to the increase in sales. a) Derive the cost and demand functions for the firm, assuming these are both linear. b) Calculate the price elasticity of demand at the current price. c) Comment on the firm's existing strategy in terms of profit maximization, without doing any calculations. d) Calculate the profit-maximizing price and output. e) Calculate the amount of profit that the firm is currently foregoing.
The total revenue curve of a firm is R(q) = 40q − 12q2 and its average cost A(q) = 1/30 q2 − 12.85q + 20 +400/q, where q is the firm's output. i. Is the rate of change of profit increasing or decreasing when theouput level of the firm is 10 units?ii. Determine the level of output for which the firm's profit is maximized.iii. What is the firm's maximum profit?
1. Teddy J is a manufacturer of dish washing liquid . If his monthly demand function for 750ml size is: q = 4000 − 250p and his total cost function is: C(q) = 500 + 0.2q (i) Derive an expression, R(q) for Teddy J′s total revenue curve.(ii) Derive an expression, Π(q) for Teddy J's profit function.(iii) Determine whether Teddy J′s profit is increasing or decreasing when he produces 5 hundred, 750ml bottles of dish washing liquid.
BYOB is a monopolist in beer production and distribution in the imaginary economy of Hopsville. Suppose that BYOB cannot price discriminate; that is, it sells its beer at the same price per can to all customers. The following graph shows the marginal cost (MC), marginal revenue (MR), average total cost (ATC), and demand (D) for beer in this market. Place the black point (plus symbol) on the graph to indicate the profit-maximizing price and quantity for BYOB. If BYOB is making a profit, use the green rectangle (triangle symbols) to shade in the area representing its profit. On the other hand, if BYOB is suffering a loss, use the purple rectangle (diamond symbols) to shade in the area representing its loss. 4.00 3.50 Monopoly Outcome 3.00 2.50 Profit ATC 2.00 Loss 1.50 1.00 MC 0.50 MR 0.5 1.0 1.5 2.0 2.5 3.0 3.5 4.0 QUANTITY (Thousands of cans of beer) Suppose that BYOB charges $2.50 per can. Your friend Dmitri says that since BYOB is a monopoly with market power, it should charge a…

1. A firm in a perfectly competitive industry has fixed costs of FC = 15, marginal costs of MC = 5 + 14g, and average variable costs of AVC = 5 + 7q. (a) What are the firm's variable costs (VC)? (b) What is the firm's total cost function? (c) If the price is $75, how much does the firm supply? (d) Does the firm continue to supply this quantity in the short-run? (e) Suppose there exists a standard market demand function from consumers (downward slopping). Please provide a logical discussion about how the market achieves short-run equilibrium.
