10. Read this excerpt from the October 18, 2022, Wall Street Journal. KINDERHOOK, N.Y.—Golden Harvest Farms has grown from a small apple-growing operation when Doug Grout’s grandfather opened it after World War II, to a multipronged business that includes a retail stand, cider press, distillery, tasting room and barbecue restaurant. But Mr. Grout said he sees a cloudier future for the business due to new state regulations that will require him to increasingly pay more overtime to the farmworkers who pick his apples in the coming years, raising one of his primary costs. “We were looking to buy another orchard, and that whole thing is tabled,” said Mr. Grout, 52 years old, who co-owns Golden Harvest with his father, as he drove between rows of Honeycrisp trees. “We’re stepping away. You’re going to see farms go out of business. This is very shortsighted.” For the apple market in New York, the new regulations will: Cause supply to shift to the left, leading to higher prices and a…

1. mary williams, owner of Williams products, is evaluating whether to introduce a new product line. after thinking through the production process and the costs of raw materials and new equipment, williams estimates the variable costs of each unit produced and sold at $6 and the fixed costs per year at $60,000 a. if the selling price is set at $18 each, how many units must be produced and sold for williams to break even? use both graphic and algebraic approaches to get your answer b. williams forecasts sales of 10,000 units for the first year if the selling price is set at $14 each. what would be the total contribution to profits from this new product during the first year? c. if the selling price is set at $12.50, williams forecasts that first-year sales would increase to 15,000 units. which pricing strategy ($14 or $12.50) would result in the greater total contribution to profits? d. what other considerations would be crucial to the final decision about…
In 2012, Barrick Gold’s two most productive mines were Cortez and Goldstrike in Nevada, USA. Table 4.5 reports their financial performance. The “average cash cost” includes operating cost, royalties, and taxes, while the “average cost” includes the cash cost as well as amortization.a. Suppose that each mine produces at the rate where the (upward-sloping) marginal cost equals the price of gold. Illustrate the shifts in Goldstrike’s marginal cost curve, selling price, and production between 2010 and 2012. (Hints: The marginal cost curve changes over time. You have only one data point on each curve. Assume any other data necessary to draw the figures.)b. Use the 2012 data to compare the (i) short-run break-even conditions for Cortez and Goldstrike; and (ii) the long-run break-even conditions for the two mines.c. If the price of gold falls to $600 per ounce, how should Barrick adjust production at the two mines?
