Find the marginal values for functions a, b, and c given below and evaluate each at Q=100. a) C(Q) = 540 + 6Q where C(Q) is the total cost function and Q is the level of production. b) R(Q) = 9Q where R(Q) is the total revenue when Q units are transacted at a constant price of P=$9. c) R(Q) = P(Q)Q, where P(Q) = 40 – 0.1Q, is a demand (inverse) function showing the dependence of price on quantity demanded Q.
The demand function for a certain product is determined by the fact that the product of the price and the quantity demanded equals 8000. The product currently sells for $2.20 per unit. Suppose manufacturing costs are increasing over time at a rate of 18% and the company plans to increase the price p at this rate as well. Find the rate of change of demand over time. Find the demand function represented in this problem where p is the price of the product and q is the quantity demanded for the product. (Type an equation.)

(a) if a company has total cost c(x)= 24,000+15x+0.2x^2 on total revenues given by R(x)=395x-0.8x^2, find the break even point? (b) if the supply function for a commodity is p= q^2+4q+16 on the demand function is p= -3p^2+ 2q+ 436, find the equilibrium quantity and equilibrium price?
Demand function is given by Q=84-2P and cost function is C(q)=25+2q+q2 1) What are the qualitative features of the costs of this cost function? i.e. average, marginal, variable, properties, and what are the key prices – shut price, breakeven price, revenue maximizing and profit maximizing price? 2) Using this cost structure and demand - how many firms are likely to operate in the long run (note: that in the long run firms tend to operate close to minimum average cost)?
