Suppose that a paper mill "feeds" a downstream box mill. For the downstream mill, the marginal profitability of producing boxes declines with volume. For example, the first unit of boxes increases earnings by $30, the second by $ 27, the third by $24, and so on, until the tenth unit increases profit by just $3. The cost the upstream mill incurs for producing enough paper (one "unit" of paper) to make one unit of boxes is $9.50. Assume the two mills operate as separate profit centers, and the paper mill sets the price of paper. It follows that the marginal profitability of boxes represents the highest price that the box division would be willing to pay the paper division for boxes.. Furthermore, assume that fixed costs are $0 for the paper mill. The following table summarizes the quantity, total revenue, and marginal costs from the perspective of the paper mill for selling paper to the box mill at various prices. In the following table, fill in the marginal revenue, total cost, and…
Problem 05-06 A firm's fixed costs for 0 units of output and its average total cost of producing different output levels are summarized in the table below. Complete the table to find the fixed cost, variable cost, total cost, average fixed cost, average variable cost, and marginal cost at all relevant levels of output. Instruction: Enter your responses for Average Fixed Cost (AFC) and Average Variable Cost (AVC) rounded to two decimal places. All other responses should be entered as whole numbers. If you are entering a negative number, use a negative sign (-) where appropriate.
