Suppose the imaginary company of Roobek is a small, Cedar Rapids-based American apparel manufacturer specializing in athleisure. The following table presents the brand’s total cost of production at several different quantities. Fill in the remaining cells of the following table.

If Amit's Curry House took in $35 000 in revenue last week and had out-of-pocket expenses of $31 500, which of the following best describes Amit's profits last week? Amit really did NOT make any profit since he needs to put the difference between revenue and out-of-pocket expenses back into the firm. Amit made an economic profit of $3500. It is NOT clear whether Amit earned any profit last week because it depends on the magnitude of the implicit costs. Amit did NOT earn an economic profit.

Calculate Iyana's marginal revenue and marginal cost for the first seven rompers they produce, and plot them on the following graph. Use the blue points (circle symbol) to plot marginal revenue and the orange points (square symbol) to plot marginal cost at each quantity. COSTS AND REVENUE (Dollars per romper) 40 35 30 25 20 15 10 0 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 QUANTITY (Rompers) Marginal Revenue Marginal Cost ? Iyana's profit is maximized when they produce a total of is $ , an amount rompers. At this quantity, the marginal cost of the final romper they produce than the price received for each romper they sell. At this point, the marginal cost of producing one more romper (the first romper beyond the profit maximizing quantity) is $ , an amount than the price received for each romper they sell. Therefore, Iyana's profit-maximizing quantity occurs at the point of intersection between the Because Iyana is a price taker, the previous condition is equivalent to curves.

provide an economic explanation for the provided text below While on vacation, you go to a miniature golf course on a weekday and notice no other customers there while you golf. Why do you think a miniature golf course would stay open during the week when it seems like the revenue from so few customers could not possibly cover the costs of running the golf course? What is an example of another business that stays open even when it's slow, and their revenue does not seem like it could cover their costs? make sure to use concepts from either of the following topics (minimum of two from the list provided rest may be from own knowledge): externalities, public goods and common resources, understanding costs, business behaviour and businesses in competitive markets.
2. A faculty member sells Gatorade at UNC Charlotte football games. He finds that if he raises his selling price by $1, he sells 6 less bottles each week. He turns over the operation to a Managerial Economics student for a week. The goal is to maximize revenue since the faculty member has a vast supply of Gatorade, and any unsold bottles can be sold in future weeks. The student takes over the operation for a week. She says she sold at the revenue-maximizing price of $4 per bottle. How many units sold? Show your work/thought process:
