Video streaming service Netflix is expanding rapidly around the globe. It is currently available in 50 countries with the goal of expanding to 200 countries by the end of 2016. Netflix’s international slogan is “Have content, will travel.” There are challenges to international expansion for this type of service, such as inadequate disposable household income and a low percentage of households with high-speed internet needed to stream videos. And even though almost half of France’s TV-owning households have internet-connected TVs, cultural restrictions limit Englishlanguage program content, requiring Netflix to invest in local content for French customers. The next countries to get Netflix are Italy, Spain, and Portugal. Similar to Netflix’s other European offerings, service will be offered at a price of €7.99 per month, which converts to U.S. $8.97 during the time of expansion. Refer to Appendix 2, Marketing by the Numbers, to calculate the annual market sales potential for Spain…

Four Internet providers offer similar services. Any new company would have to engage in a price war with the existing companies.
In 1939, the box office records set by Gone with the Wind and The Wizard of Oz proved to Hollywood studios that investing in Technicolor was worth every penny. Nevertheless, a reversal of fortune hit the film industry as the United States entered World War II. Wartime shortages made celluloid nitrate more costly, so Hollywood studios reverted to primarily black and white. The few Technicolor musicals released only recovered their production costs. The graph shows Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's (MGM) production of Technicolor movies before World War II. Modify the graph to describe the wartime period for MGM. Assume that nothing changes except the items discussed in the question.
Assume a firm's marginal costs are increasing at its current level of output. If a firm's marginal revenue is less than the marginal cost of producing the last unit of output chosen by the firm, then: Profits can be increased if the firm decreases output. The firm is certainly earning an economic profit but not as much as it could be. Profits can be increased if the firm increases output. The firm's economic profit is necessarily less than zero.
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
The Hokey Pokey, a children's day care center is thinking about changing the nature of its business. It is considering shutting down the day care center, and re-opening their business as an adult night club called the Hanky Panky. The Hokey Pokey currently makes $500 in profits. However, re-opening as the Hanky Panky will increase their profits from $500 to $1500. Friendly's Ice Cream which is currently located next to the Hokey Pokey is concerned because this move would reduce its profits by $1200. This would occur because they lose many of the families who currently come to the restaurant (some of which have their kids in the day care center.) but very few adult night club patrons are looking for ice cream According to economic theory, will the efficient outcome still likely occur, if there were many more surrounding stores with similar objections to the Hanky Panky? A) Yes, because the Coase Theorem will still apply as parties will bargain to the…

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…
