A fried chicken franchise finds that the demand equation for its new roast chicken product, "Roasted Rooster," is given by 40 p0.6 where p is the price (in dollars) per quarter-chicken serving and q is the number of quarter-chicken servings that can be sold per hour at this price. Find E(p) E(p) = q= X Find the price elasticity of demand when the price is set at $3.70 per serving. At a price of $3.70, a 1% increase in price leads to a Interpret the result. At a price of $3.70, the demand is elastic They should raise X% decrease in demand. ✓X the price per serving in order to increase revenue.
The demand for home firm product is given by the inverse demand function: P = 120 −QD. The company’s costs are: T C = 20Q+ 200 and MC = $20.2. Suppose the home country open up to free trade and a foreign competitor enters the market. Assume thatthe foreign firm has the same cost structure as the home firm (the monopoly from the previous question).A) Derive the best response function for each firm (h-home and f-foreign)B) Find each firms’ output, the home market price, and each firms’ profit from the home market
Suppose Ring Dental is the single supplier at HRM region provide the dental service and has a market demand curve Q = 40 – P; A total cost curve given by the formula: T C = 80 - 20Q + 2Q2 Find the profit-maximizing quantity, price, and profit. Now, suppose Halifax Dental wishes to separate the market and target to two different groups of customers young and old customers, the average cost = marginal cost = 10 for both markets Young customers with elasticity = -5 and DA = 12000 - 65P Old customers with elasticity = -7 and DB = 12000 - 55P What is the profit if Halifax Dental sets the equal price for both markets? (use the average elasticity for equal price) What is the profit if Halifax Dental charges different prices for each market?
The Poster Bed Company believes that its industry can best be classified as monopolistically competitive. An analysis of the demand for its canopy bed has resulted in the following estimated demand function for the bed: P = 1,265-9Q The cost analysis department has estimated the total cost function for the poster bed as TC = -15Q3 +5Q +24,000 Short-run profits are maximized when the level of output is The total profit at this price-output level is The point price elasticity of demand at the profit-maximizing level of output is The level of fixed costs the firm is experiencing on its bed production is What is the impact of a $5,000 increase in the level of fixed costs on the price charged, output produced, and profit generated? Price Charged Output Produced Profits Generated Increase No change Decrease O O and the price is $ O O
There are two firms, Firm 1 and Firm 2. The two firms’ products are viewed as identical by most consumers. The relevant cost functions are C(Q1) = 10 + 4Q1 and C(Q2) = 12 + 16Q2, and the market demand curve for product is given by P = 50 – 4Q. Instructions: Use no decimals. Use the average cost to calculate monopoly profits. Do not round values if used to complete other calculations. Complete the following table. Q1 Q2 P Profits F1 Profits F2 Duopoly competition Collusion
Give only typing answer with explanation and conclusion The market demand for a monopoly firm is estimated to be: Qd = 100,000 - 500P + 2M + 500PR where Qd is quantity demanded, P is price, M is income, and PR is the price of a related good. The manager has forecasted the values of M and PR will be $50,000 and $20, respectively, in 2016. The average variable cost function is estimated to be AVC = 520 - 0.03Q + 0.000001Q2 Total fixed cost in 2016 is expected to be $4 million. The profit-maximizing price for 2016 is $80. $100. $260. $520. $560.
Suppose a manager is faced with the following demand curve for a new software application in a monopoly market, Q = 200 - 50P and the short run total cost function is TC = 2Q + Q2 / 30 If the manager is able to maximize the firms' profit in this monopoly market, what is the total profit value?
Use the orange points (square symbol) to plot the initial short-run industry supply curve when there are 10 firms in the market. (Hint: You can disregard the portion of the supply curve that corresponds to prices where there is no output since this is the industry supply curve.) Next, use the purple points (diamond symbol) to plot the short-run industry supply curve when there are 15 firms. Finally, use the green points (triangle symbol) to plot the short-run industry supply curve when there are 20 firms. PRICE (Dollars per pound) 100 90 80 70 80 50 40 30 20 10 0 0 125 250 375 500 825 750 875 1000 1125 1250 QUANTITY (Thousands of pounds) Demand Because you know that competitive firms earn Supply (10 firms) True Supply (15 firms) If there were 10 firms in this market, the short-run equilibrium price of rhodium would be $ would . Therefore, in the long run, firms would False Supply (20 firms) per pound. From the graph, you can see that this means there will be ? per pound. At that price,…

Natural-ExP is a unique company that is dedicated to making day trips to the Nevado de Toluca. The service includes transportation, food and guide service. Being the number of tickets sold, if the cost function of serving a new customer is Cmg = 20q, the marginal revenue function Img = 600−40q and the demand is q = (600 − p) /20. Under this scenario, what is the price of the excursion. $400 $600 $300 $100
Consider a firm that has one factory, but can sell its product in two observably different markets, engaging in third-degree price discrimination. You may assume that the good produced is continuously divisible (like ethanol). The firm has a monopoly in market 1 and faces market demand curve Q1(P) = 100 – 2P and the firm also sells its product in market 2 which is competitive and has market price P2 = $30. The firm has cost function C(Q) = 0.25Q2 with marginal cost equal to MC(Q) = 0.5Q, where Q = Q1 + Q2 is the total quantity it produces: Q1 is the quantity to be sold in market 1 and Q2 is the quantity to be sold in market 2. a) Write out the firm’s profit maximization problem. b) Give the marginal conditions (equations) that a solution to the profit maximization problem satisfies. c) Solve for the firm’s optimal quantities to sell in each market. d) Give the price that the firm optimally charges in each market
