Given that the variable cost is $25 per customer, with a fixed cost of $200, he needs to fnd which price maximizes, therefore my question is how do I find what amount he earns if profit is maximized.
Maximize profit 4D + 3WWith constraintsTime 3D + 2W ≤ 150Cost 2D + 4W ≤ 220D, W ≥ 0 We saw the best point was (20, 45) with profit 215. Use this problem and the notes to answer the following (except part 4):1 write true or false and then explain either response to this – the range of optimality on the D variable refers to how much the value 20 in the best point can go down or go up and this point is still the best,2 write true or false and the explain either response to this – the range of feasibility of the time constraint refers to the value 150 and how much if can change and the best point is still (20, 45),3 write true or false and explain either response to this – the shadow price of .125 on the cost constraint means that if the right hand side of the constraint (the 220) is anywhere between 100 and 300 then each 1 unit increase in this RHS (say from 100 to 101) will increase profit by 12.5 cents and any 1 unit decrease in this RHS will decrease profit 12.5 cents,4 write true or…

The Jones are small farmers in the wheat industry – they are price takers. Their cost function is: TC = 600,000 + 3,000Q + Q2 and MC = 3,000 + 2Q. The market price is $5,000 per ton. Assuming the Jones are maximizing profits (or minimizing loses), how much profit are they making? You must show your work.
AmonopolysellsitsproductinboththeU.S.andJapanese markets. The American inverse demand function is PUS = 100 – QUS, and the Japanese inverse demand function is PJ = 80 – QJ. PUS and PJ are both measured in dollars. The firm’s marginal cost is MC = 20 in both countries. Suppose the company can prevent resales between these two countries. In order to maximize its profit, what prices should the monopoly firm charge in the two markets?

20) This decision tree represents the expected profits and the standard deviations associated with three decisions facing a mobile phone producer (All figures are in millions of dollars). The root node (the one on the left) represents the decision of whether to produce the phones in China or North America. The second pair of nodes represent the decision of whether to market the phones in China or North America; and the final nodes represent the choice of selling price: if the phones are sold in China, they will be sold for either $30 or $40, whereas if they are sold in North America, they will be sold for either $40 or $50. Based on the calculated values, what is the company's best strategy?
