Q.No.2: Consider total cost and total revenue given in the following table: Quantity 3 5 7 Total cost 8 10 11 13 19 27 37 Total Revenue 8 16 24 32 40 48 56 I. Calculate profit for each quantity. How much should the firm produce to maximize profit? II. Calculate marginal revenue and marginal cost for each quantity. Graph them. (Hint: Put the points between whole numbers. For example, the marginal cost between 2 and 3 should be graphed at 2.5) At what quantity do these curves cross? How does this relate to your answer to part (a)? III.Can you tell whether this firm is in a competitive industry? If so, can you tell whether the industry is in a long-run equilibrium?

The following five individuals have different utility functions over food (good x) and clothing (good y): 1) u₁(x, y) = 3x²y 2) u₂(x, y) = 2√x + y 3) Uz(x, y) = x0.6y0.4 4) u₁(x, y) = x² + y² 1 5) us(x, y) = x + 3y For each of these people: a) Compute their marginal utilities of good x, MUx = Ju(x,y) MU, = ду du(x,y) ax b) Check whether the property of "more is better" is satisfied for both goods? Explain. [Hint: Check whether marginal utilities are positive assuming positive amounts of good x and good y] ƏMUX əx and marginal utility of good y, c) Does the marginal utility of good x diminish, remain constant, or increase as each of the individuals buys more x? Explain. [Hint: There are 2 ways to do it: 1) visually check what happens to the expression of MUx when x increases (does it decrease, keep constant or decrease?); or 2) take the partial derivative of this marginal utility with respect to x, that is ƏMUx .aMUX ƏMUX If 0, the marginal utility of x is increasing in x] d) Does the…
