Suppose that the market for dress shirts is a competitive market. The following graph shows the daily cost curves of a firm operating in this market. 50 18, 42 45 40 35 30 ATC 25 20 15 AVC 10 MC 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 18 20 QUANTITY (Thousands of shirts) For each price in the following table, calculate the firm's optimal quantity of units to produce, and determine the profit or loss if it produces at that quantity, using the data from the graph to identify its total variable cost. Assume that if the firm is indifferent between producing and shutting down, it will produce. (Hint: You can select the purple points [diamond symbols] on the graph to see precise information on average variable cost.)

In this case, the firm's fixed cost is…
Explain the role of sunk costs in decision-making.
Can you more detailed explain and write this part : Cost is minimized at the point where profit is maximized . Profit = R - C = q2+14q+20 - 2q2 + 8q - 15 Profit maximizing point : d(Profit )/dq = 0 => -2q + 22 = 0 ( especially i don't understand this part !!!!) q* = 11 (Cost minimizing level of production )

Ike's Bikes is a major manufacturer of bicycles. Currently, the company produces bikes using only one factory. However, it is considering expanding production to two or even three factories. The following table shows the company's short-run average total cost (SRATC) each month for various level of production if it uses one, two, or three factories. (Note: Q equals the total quantity of bikes produced by all factories.) Number of Factories. Q = 50 1 140 2 230 3 320 Q = 100 60 110 160 Average Total Cost (Dollars per bike) Q = 150 Q = 200 40 40 80 80 40 40 Q = 250 160 110 60 Q = 300 320 230 140 per bike. Suppose Ike's Bikes is currently producing 300 bikes per month in its only factory. Its short-run average total cost is $ Suppose Ike's Bikes is expecting to produce 300 bikes per month for several years. In this case, in the long run, it would choose to produce bikes using one factory one factory On the two factories its SR plot the three SRATC curves for Ike's Bikes from the previous…
Create a firm model (TWO graphs, one for total units and one for marginal units)
give everything in ms excel steps for the following (Profit Model) The demand for airline travel is quite sensitive to price. Typically, there is an inverse relationship between demand and price; when price decreases, demand increases and vice versa. One major airline has found that when the price (P) for a round trip between Chicago and Los Angeles is $500, the demand (D) is 700 passengers per day. When the price is reduced to $300, demand is 1,000 passengers per day. a. Plot these points on a coordinate system and develop a function that relates demand to price. b. Develop a mathematical model that will determine the total revenue as a function of price. c. Provide a recommendation to the airline company about the price that should be selected for the round trip between Chicago and Los Angeles such that their revenue is maximized. Describe how you have reached to this recommendation? (your solution may not be the best solution but should be a good solution).
Use the graph above to answer these questions: What is the profit-maximizing level of output? What is the economic profit? What is the per-unit amount of profit at the profit-maximizing level of output?
Consider the following total cost (TC) curve: 20 $/Q1 15 10. 5 5 MC 10 1 15 TC In the two graphs below, please (carefully) draw the marginal cost (MC) and the average variable cost (AVC) curves corresponding to the TC curve. Please identify the coordinates of the point on each curve at Q=3 (three) and Q = 15 (fifteen). That is, what is MC and AVC at Q=3 and = 15? Still, in other words, identify the coordinates of two points on each of the two curves. Output AVC
Problem 6 Casper consumes cocoa and cheese. Cocoa is sold in an unusual way. There is only one supplier, and the more cocoa you buy from him, the higher the price you have to pay per unit. In fact y units of cocoa will cost Casper y² dollars (i.e. the price of y units is y dollars, hence the quadratic cost). Cheese is sold in the usual way at a price of 2 dollars per unit. Casper's income is 20 dollars and his utility function is U(x, y) = x+2y, where z is his consumption of cheese and y is his consumption of cocoa. a. Sketch Casper's budget set and shade it in. b. Sketch some of his indifference curves and label the optimal bundle that he chooses. c. Calculate the amount of cheese and the amount of cocoa that Casper demands at these prices and this income, i.e. calculate the optimal bundle. (Recall that you can find the slope of any curve using the Total Differential, i.e. the MRS formula works in general)
