9). Given the total revenue function R(Q) = 4350Q – 13Q² and the total cost function C(Q) = Q³ – 5.5Q² + 150Q + 675 a) Find the critical value(s) of the profit function b) Calculate the maximum profit (Check by using second derivative test)
A company produces two products in (continuous) quantities q1 and q2. At the current production levels, the total revenue is equal to 240 monetary units. Marginal revenue with respect to q1 is 2.1 monetary units and marginal revenue with respect to q2 is 1.5 monetary units. An increase of q1 by 1 unit costs 1.5 monetary units; an increase of q2 by 1 unit costs 1 monetary units. The company will increase its budget by 10 monetary units. It intends to spend the extra budget either on a production increase of the first product only or a production increase of the second product only. Which is most profitable and what extra revenue can the company expect?
