1. Suppose a firm sells its output for P=20 - Q1000 Where Q is the quantity it produces and sells. Total costs is given by TC=5000+4Q What is the profit maximizing value for production? At what price is this product sold for? Use the MR=MC approach at the end of the question.
Based on Thomas (1971). A toy company produces toys at two plants and sells them in three regions. Each plant can produce up to 4500 units. Each toy sells for $30, and the cost of producing and shipping a toy from a given plant to a region is given in the same file. The company can advertise locally and nationally. Each $1 spent on a local ad raises sales in a region by 0.3 units, whereas each $1 spent advertising nationally increases sales in each region by 0.2 units. a. Determine how the company can maximize its profit. b. If sales stimulated by advertising exhibits diminishing returns, how would you change your model?
Using the graph answer the following questions: A: At the profit maximizing level of output, what is the firm's total revenue? B: At the profit maximizing quantity, what is the firm's total cost? C: At the profit maximizing quantity, what is the firm's profit? D: Assuming that most firms in the industry have similar costs, describe what happens in this market to bring the industry to a long-run equilibrium (where there are zero profits).

Can you help with this question and show all the step please. Consider a manufacturer making leather cases with a market demand function (weekly) given by P=95-Q/Q+1 +5, where Q is the number of leather cases. (A) Show that this function is consistent with the law of Demand (i.e. that when Q increases, P decreases). (B) The manufacturer has weekly fixed costs of $20 and variable costs of $5 per leather case. Formulate the profit function from this information. (C) Locate the stationary points and determine the optimal Q that maximises the profit. (Use the first derivatives test to classify any stationary point).

Hi! Can you help me with the question below? Northside Social (NS) sells cups of coffee and amazing breakfast sandwiches. The current price of a cup of coffee is $3.00 and the current price of an amazing breakfast sandwich is $8.00. At those prices, NS sells 1000 cups of coffee and 200 breakfast sandwiches daily. NS faces a constant marginal cost for each cup of coffee of 50 cents and the constant marginal cost of breakfast sandwiches is $2. NS increases the price of coffee 5%, to $3.15. After the price increase, NS sells 900 cups of coffee, a decrease of 10% in cups of coffee. Demand for coffee at NS at this price interval is best described as:A) ElasticB) InelasticC) Unitary ElasticD) Perfectly Elastic
The blue curve on the following graph represents the demand curve facing a firm that can set its own prices. Use the graph input tool to help you answer the following questions. You will not be scored on any changes you make to this graph. Note: Once you enter a value in a white field, the graph and any corresponding amounts in each grey field will change accordingly. PRICE (Dollars per unit) 100 TOTAL REVENUE (Dollars) 90 80 20 10 0 1250 1125 1000 875 750 625 500 On the previous graph, change the number found in the Quantity Demanded field to determine the prices that correspond to the production of 0, 10, 20, 25, 30, 40, or 50 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. 375 250 125 + 0 0 0 Demand 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 50 QUANTITY (Units) + 5 20 10 15 25 30 35 QUANTITY (Number of units) 40 Graph Input Tool Market for Goods 45 50 Quantity Demanded (Units)…

If you do not have a large market for your product or service, what should you do to be sure it retains its value? a)Make sure to scale your business and its cost to the size of your market. b)Identify other products or services that you could include alongside the original in order to increase market size. c)Consider ways to substantially change your product or service in order to increase your market size. d)Shelve your idea; perhaps the market will increase in future.
You run a game-day shuttle service for parking services for the local ball club. Suppose you are compensated $20 per customer, per ride. In other words, your marginal revenue is $20. Your costs for different customer loads are summarized in the following table. For each customer load, calculate both the marginal cost and the average cost. Then answer the question that follows. Note: Round your answers to the nearest cent. Customers Total Cost Marginal Cost Average Cost ($) ($ per customer) ($ per customer) 1 $30 2 $34 3 $42 4 $54 5 $70 6 $90 7 $114 8 $142 In order to maximize profits, you should carry 3, 4, 6, or 8 customers per load.
