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
An agricultural seed company has an inverse demand given by: P - 200 - 2Q, and a cost function given by: C(Q) - 20Q. The monopoly price is:
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?
Ecotripper Enterprises is the sole producer of Sunblast solar-powered skateboards, “The green alternative”. Market demand for Sunblasts is given by the formula: P=120-0.5Q, where p is in $ per skateboard and Q in skateboards per week. Total costs, in $ per week, are given by: TC=100+20Q, and marginal cost (MC) equal 20. a.) Derive the marginal revenue function and calculate the profit-maximizing price, quantity sold and the profit. b.) If the government imposes a price ceiling of $ 65 per skateboard, what is the effect on the equilibrium and the values derived in a.)? c.) If the government wanted Ecotripper to produce the socially efficient quantity of skateboards, what price ceiling could it set in the short run? What would the result be in the long run? d.) If the government decided to set the price ceiling so that consumer surplus was maximized subject to Ecotripper earning zero profits, what would be the level of the price ceiling, the quantity sold and the consumer surplus?
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?

Find the total revenue (TR) for monopoly firm (refer to rectangle OABE) Find the total cost (TC) for monopoly firm (refer to rectangle ODCE) Find total profit (or loss) for monopoly firm (refer to rectangle ABDC) Note: Show the formula and calculation
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.

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,…
