Faye is an entrepreneur considering whether to enter the market for providing websites to universities offering online learning. The market is currently perfectly competitive, and the market-clearing price is $10,000 per client. Her marginal cost is given by the equation MC = 200Q. a. In this market, what is Faye’s marginal revenue function? b. If Faye enters the market, how many website clients will she have, and what will her profit be? You can assume no fixed cost. Now imagine Faye asks you for advice. She knows you have just taken this course, and you learned about market power. c. Explain two ways Faye can achieve greater market power in this market. Faye takes your advice, and she is now the monopolist in a new market, where the demand curve is given by Q = 300,000 – 1,000P d. What is Faye’s new marginal revenue curve? e. In this new market, how clients will she have, and at what price will she sell her services? Now imagine you see all the profits Faye is making and you decide…
A firm faces the demand curve: P = 4,191 - 16Q. What is the firm's revenue maximizing price? Enter as a value (round to two decimal places if necessary).
Widget Sales Jesaki Inc. is trying to enter the widget market. The research department established the following price-demand, cost, and revenue functions: p(x)=60-1.20x C(a) = 210 + 12x |R(x) = xp(x) = x(60 - 1.20x) Revenue function where x is in thousands of widgets and C(x) and R(x) are in thousands of dollars. The price p(z) is the price in dollars of one widget when the demand is a thousand widgets. All three functions have domain 1 ≤ ≤ 50. Use this information to answer questions 1-10 below. Price-demand function Cost function
For a firm with a downward-sloping demand curve, which of the following is true at the profit-maximizing level of output? For this case, let's assume that marginal costs are positive.a) demand is perfectly inelastic b) demand is inelastic but not perfectly inelastic c) demand is unit-elastic d) demand is elastic but not perfectly elastice) demand is perfectly elastic
A firm faces the demand curve: P = 4,724 - 15Q. What is the firm's revenue maximizing price? Enter as a value (round to two decimal places if necessary).
In a perfectly competitive market, the market demand and supply curves are given by Q, = 1000 - 10P, and Q, = - 600 + 30Pg. A single firm operating in the market would face a demand curve that is perfectly elastic at a price of $ (enter your answer as an integer).
Please diagram the revenue and profit situation (which would also include the cost curves) for a producer of a highly elastic (but not perfectly elastic) good of your choice (a restaurant, boutique clothing store, etc.). Under what circumstances would it make sense for them to raise their price? While profit maximization is the main goal for most firms (and one which you should be able to represent on a diagram), you may wish to consider alternative goals depending upon the business you have chosen.

On the graph input tool, change the number found in the Quantity Demanded field to determine the prices that correspond to the production of 0, 6, 12, 15, 18, 24, and 30 units of output. Calculate the total revenue for each of these production levels. Then, on the following graph, use the green points (triangle symbol) to plot the results. Calculate the total revenue if the firm produces 6 versus 5 units. Then, calculate the marginal revenue of the sixth unit produced. The marginal revenue of the sixth unit produced is________. Calculate the total revenue if the firm produces 12 versus 11 units. Then, calculate the marginal revenue of the 12th unit produced. The marginal revenue of the 12th unit produced is_________.
There are 80 firms of type A and 60 firms of type B in a perfectly competitive market. On one hand, type A firm faces a fixed cost (all sunk) of $12 and average variable cost is 2q. On the other hand type B firm faces a fixed cost (all sunk) of $10 and the variable cost is 3q. Market demand function is given by Q=1200-70 P. Find the equilibrium price in the market. $7 $8 $12 $10
Consider the total revenue function, TR = 53 + 8Q + 6Q^2 Find the marginal revenue (MR) at Q= 6.
