Step by step
Solved in 2 steps
- If a firm’s current revenues are less than its current variable costs, when should it shut down? If the firm decides to shut down, should we expect that decision to be final? Explain using an example that is not in the book.The table gives some of the costs of the Delicious Pie Company. The marginal cost per pie of increasing the output of pies from 100 to 200 is Total variable cost (dollars) Output (pies) 0 100 200 300 400 $8.00 $600 $6.00 $5.00 0 400 1,000 1,800 2,800 Total cost (dollars) 300 700 1300 2100 3100 ?Under what conditions will a firm shut down temporarily? Explain theoretically and graphically.
- Billy’s Bean Bag Emporium produced 300 bean bag chairs but sold only 275 of the units it produced. The average cost of production for each unit of output produced was $100. The price for each of the 275 units sold was $95. What is the Total profit for Billy’s Bean Bag Emporium? Include in your answer your calculationIf Hasan runs the restaurant himself and before setting up this business, he was working in a company as a salesman for $15,000 per year. Hasan owns the building that his restaurant in housed in and could have rented it out for $10,000 per year. Those would be an implicit cost of opening his own restaurant. Calculate the economic profit?Can the firm's marginal revenue really be negative? Why?
