In this Assignment, you will define and calculate the remaining six major cost elements of a business, when given the Total Costs and the Quantity Produced, as well as to use the computed costs to determine a minimum cost output level for that business. In addition, you will compute both the break-even price and the shut-down price for a hypothetical business in a perfectly competitive market, and determine if that business would incur an economic profit at various market prices, and should the firm continue to produce at each of those price levels.

Discuss the optimal method for procuring inputs that have well-defined and measurable quality specifications and require highly specialized investments. What are the primary advantages and disadvantages of acquiring inputs through this means?
Consider the following statements. Which is true about product life cycle theory? (I) In the early stages of the product life cycle, the demand for the new product is relatively insensitive to the price and thus a pioneering firm can charge a relatively high price. (II) It predicts that over time the U.S. switches from an exporting country of new products to an importing country. (III) When plotting "quantity sold" versus "time" in U.S. , the initial sharp increasing in production flattens out or even reduces over the time. Group of answer choices none of the others (I), (II), (III) Only (III) Only (I) Only (II)
a- The Western U.S. saw record heat waves in August, 2021. Electricity is heavily used in air conditioning leading to very high demand for electricity then. Would you expect the marginal costs of generating electricity to be similar to in May, 2021, lower orhigher? Why? b- Suppose California could add 1000 MWh of wind generation—which produces for four hours during the nighttime when temperatures are relatively low—or 1000 MWh of solar generation—which produces for four hours in the daytime when temperatures are relatively high. Which one would you have expected to lower total costs of electricity generation more in the summer? Why? Please explain by sketching the daytime and nighttime marginal cost curve for electricity and showing the size of the cost reductions.
5. An entrepreneur has costs for storing and shipping materials for his manufacturing process given by the function C (k) = 100 (100 + 9k + 144 / k) when 1 ≤ k ≤ 100, where C (k) is the cost total storage and transportation for 100 days of operation. If a load of k tons of material moves every k days, for what values of k does C (k) have a minimum value?
If the cost C (in dollars) of removing p percent of the particulate pollution from the exhaust gases at an industrial site is given by the equation shown below. 6100p C(p) = 100-p Find the rate of change of C with respect to p. C'(p) = Suppose the revenue (in dollars) from the sale of x units of a product is given by R(x) = 36x2 + 50x 2x + 2 Find the marginal revenue when 35 units are sold. (Round your answer to the nearest dollar.) $ Interpret your result. When 35 units are sold, the projected revenue from the sale of unit 36 would be $

A firm faces the following costs: total cost of capital = $8,000; price paid for labor = $20 per labor unit; and price paid for raw materials = $6 per raw-material unit. Initially, the firm can produce 2,000 units of output by combining its fixed capital with 250 units of labor and 400 units of raw materials. After the firm improves its production process, it can produce 5,000 units of output by combining its fixed capital with 150 units of labor and 300 units of raw materials. How will the firm's total costs change as a result of the improved production process? Instructions: Enter your answers as a whole number. Total cost changes from $ ___ using the original process to $ ___ using the improved process. plz answer correct asap dont answer by pen pepar
