Calculate the total revenue for each of these production levels. Then, on the following graph, use the green points (triangle symbol) to plot the results. Calculate the total revenue if the firm produces 6 versus 5 units. Then, calculate the marginal revenue of the sixth unit produced. The marginal revenue of the sixth unit produced is________. Calculate the total revenue if the firm produces 12 versus 11 units. Then, calculate the marginal revenue of the 12th unit produced. The marginal revenue of the 12th unit produced is_________.

Julie owns a store that sells previously-owned video games. Last year, Julie generated $250,000 in total revenues. Her explicit costs were $175,000, which included wages paid to her employees and payments made to her and suppliers. Last year Julie also received an offer of $75,000 per year to manage a retail outlet of a chain-store competitor. Based on this information: accounting profit = $0; economic profit = −$75,000. accounting profit = $175,000; economic profit = $75,000. accounting profit = $75,000; economic profit = $0. accounting profit = $25,000; economic profit = $100,000. accounting profit = $75,000; economic profit = −$100,000.
Suppose that in 2018, you inherited from your grandfather a small planetarium that had been closed for several years. Your planetarium has a maximum capacity of 75 people and all the equipment is in working order. You decide to reopen the planetarium on the weekends as a new laser-tag venture called Shoot for the Stars, and much to your delight it has become an instant success, with admission tickets selling out quickly for each day you are open. Describe some of the decisions that you must make in the short run. What might you consider to be your “fixed factor”? What alternative decisions might you be able to make in the long run? Explain

Looking at the Table, Profit, Cost and Revenue Functions, Quant is the quantity of output, C(Q) is the Total Cost of production for corresponding quantities of output, R(Q) is the corresponding Total Revenue at each level of output Q, if all output is sold and PRF(Q) is the Total Profit for each corresponding output level. PRF(Q) is calculated as R(Q)-C(Q). Using this information, does the company make its highest profit where R(Q) is highest? a. No, because the highest possible revenue may be at an output level where the cost of output may exceed the revenue generated at that output level. In this problem, the highest profit is at output level 15 Ob. Yes, because there is no way that cost can exceed revenue when revenue is maximized. Cc. No, because the highest possible revenue may be at an output level where the cost of output may exceed the revenue generated at that output level. In this problem, the highest profit is at output level 10 or 12 or in between. Od. Yes, because the…
