PER-UNIT COST (Dollars) Jouet is a profit-maximizing firm producing toy trains-a capital-intensive good-which are sold in its home country, France, and abroad in Russia. Jouet chose foreign production as a method of penetrating the Russian market and has to decide whether it is more efficient to directly invest in ussia to establish a production subsidiary or to license the technology to a Russian firm to produce its goods. n the following graph, AVCR is the average variable cost curve of a Russian firm producing toy trains. (This curve represents costs such as labor nd materials.) The curve ATCsidiary represents the total unit costs Le Jouet will face if it establishes a subsidiary in Russia.

3. The company that you manage has already spent $8 million on developing a new product – awebsite that combines You Tube, Twitter, and Facebook – called You Twit Face. Thedevelopment is not quite finished. It will cost an extra $2 million to finish development andcomplete the product. Assume that this $2 million amount includes the explicit costs and anyopportunity cost that the company may have. At a recent meeting, your salespeople report thatthe expected sales of your new product (if you finish) are $6 million total. If you do not finishdeveloping the product you can sell the incomplete product to another company for $2 million. What is the MC of finishing the development? __________________ What is the MB of finishing the development? __________________ Should you finish the product? Why or why not? Use the idea of “thinking at the margin” toexplain your answer. Need details explanation
