Economics: Industrial Economics Question: 1 You start a business after inventing and patenting a design for a cleaning robot. Given your patent and the unique nature of the product, your business faces no competitors. The robots are very thorough and can clean both inside and outside your house (they can mow the lawn, clean your yacht you are going to buy, etc.) but take a considerable amount of time to do this so many families may find it advantageous to buy several. The marginal cost of production is $100 and assume there are no fixed costs. You are able to separate your customers into two groups: teen and adult. The demand curve for a teen is Q^T=1,000-5P and the demand curve for an adult is Q^A=3,500-10P. All customers have to pick up their product at the store. This allows you to identify which group is which and charge them the correct price. Answer the following: Please Show your Work. What price will you charge teens? a. 180 b. 100 c. 150 d. 125 Question: 2 Please refer to…
NEWS WIRE NORTH KOREA'S ROCKETS DEEPEN FOOD CRISIS North Korea's Rocket Launches Cost $1.3 Billion North Korea's rocket program is costly. In December 2012 North Korea successfully launched a long-range rocket carrying a satellite into space. That feat cost $300 million.

The burden of North Korea's military program is evident in widespread poverty and periodic starvation. Source: News accounts of December 2012 - January 2013. According to the News Wire, what is the opportunity cost of North Korea's rocket program in terms of corn for North Korea's 25 million people? million tons of corn
