The table below presents the production quantity, total revenue, and total cost of a company in its production process. Using the Excel program, you make a graph that represents the total income and total cost. Determines the level of economic gain or loss for each production level. Identifies the point where the gain is maximized. Identifies which of the four market structures studied this example belongs to.

The following table shows the capital and labor requirements for 10 different levels of production. Assuming that the price of labor (PL) is $8 per unit and the price of capital (PK) is $6 per unit, compute and graph total cost, marginal cost, and average cost for the firm. To do this, fill in the total cost for each output level in the table below.

In what way does an economist's measurement of profit differ from an accountant's? Accountants calculate total revenue differently. Accountants do NOT always include all of the opportunity costs when calculating total production costs. Economists calculate higher profits for firms as economic profit generally exceeds accounting profit. Economists do NOT always include all of the opportunity costs when calculating total production costs.
image 1 : This chapter discusses many types of costs: explicit costs, implicit costs, total cost, average fixed cost, average variable cost, and marginal cost. Fill in the type of cost that best completes each sentence. Profits equal total revenue minus (average fixed cost , average variable cost , explicit cost , implicit cost , marginal cost , total cost) The term (average fixed cost , average variable cost , explicit cost , implicit cost , marginal cost , total cost) refers to costs that involve direct monetary payment by the firm. (average fixed cost , average variable cost , explicit cost , implicit cost , marginal cost , total cost) is falling when marginal cost is below it and rising when marginal cost is above it. The cost of producing an extra unit of output is the (average fixed cost , average variable cost , explicit cost , implicit cost , marginal cost , total cost) .

Suppose that Maria is starting a food ordering and delivery company. Customers order meals online. Employees prepare the meals and deliver them to customers. Maintenance of the online platform for ordering meals costs the company $5 per day. The company also rents space where orders are prepared. Rent costs $50 per day. To make the deliveries, the business also rents two delivery cars that cost $10 each per day. The costs of ingredients for preparing different numbers of meals are provided in the table below. Maria also has to hire between 0 and 10 workers (depending on the number of meals she chooses to make) to buy ingredients, prepare meals, and deliver the orders. She will pay each employee $120 per day. The first two columns of the table below show how many meals different number of workers can prepare and deliver.

22. Suppose a firm has a production technology given by the Cobb-Douglas production function: Q = f(L,K) = AL¤ KB with a + ß 0, where L and K represent labour and capital respectively and A is technology. (a) Does this production function exhibit constant, increasing or decreasing returns to scale? Explain how you would be able to see this on an isoquant graph. (b) Set out the unconstrained profit maximisation problem (assuming input prices are w for labour and r for capital and the output price is p) and then solve for the unconditional input demand functions for capital and labour and find the firm's supply function (c) Now set up the cost minimisation problem and solve for the conditional labour and capital demands. What is the difference between the unconditional input demand functions from part (b) and the conditional input demand functions you have just derived? (d) Give an expression for the total cost function (no need to simplify) and explain how the average and marginal cost…
