Please help; I'm confused on this one. I got d as my answer, but I feel the correct answer should be (C), an increase in supply since the marginal cost is being increased due to work safety regulations.
The Lead Zeppelin Company produces powered and steerable lighter-than-air craft. The company’s airships are specially lined and are therefore safer than normal dirigibles. The table below shows the weekly production of dirigibles, along with the associated Average Cost and Total Revenue figures (the Average Cost and Total Revenue figures are actually in thousands of dollars, so the $15 represents $15,000, but we have left off the zeros to save space). Quantity Average Cost Total Cost Total Revenue 0 -- 0 $0 1 $15 15 $10 2 $9 18 $20 3 $8 24 $30 4 $8.50 34 $40 5 $9 45 $50 6 $10 60 $60 7 $12 84 $70 The Lead Zeppelin Company has decided that it will produce at least 1 dirigible. Now the question becomes, how many more dirigibles should it produce to make as much profit as possible? Use the profit-maximizing rule to explain how many dirigibles the Lead Zeppelin Company should produce to…
Suppose your product sells for $1.20 per unit. The total cost of producing x units is C(x) = 50 + 0.20x + .001x^2 dollars. a.) Find the marginal revenue and marginal profit functions b.) Find the marginal profit when x = 400 c.) What is the approximate profit from selling the 401st unit? d.) Find the value of x for which the marginal profit is zero.
