A study of 86 savings and loan associations in six northwestern states yielded the following cost function. C� = 3.69 - 0.007999Q� + 0.000005359Q2�2 + 25.0X1�1 (3.69) (3.08) (3.42) (3.50) where C� = average operating expense ratio, expressed as a percentage and defined as total operating expense ($ million) divided by total assets ($ million) times 100 percent. Q� = output; measured by total assets ($ million) X1�1 = ratio of the number of branches to total assets ($ million) Note: The number in parentheses below each coefficient is its respective t-statistic. Holding constant the effects of bank branching (X1�1), what is the level of total assets that minimizes the average operating expense ratio? $746.31 million $1,562.70 million $1,492.63 million $461.31 million What is the average operating expense ratio for a savings and loan association with the level of total assets determined in the previous part and 1 branch?…

(a) How much must the firm spend to produce 100 units of output, and what is the average cost of production when X = 100? (b) What is the incremental cost of producing the 101st unit of output? (c) What happens to the cost of producing 100 units of output if the wage rate and the rental cost of capital rise by 25 per cent each? What happens to the average and marginal cost? (d) What happens to the cost of producing 100 units of output if the wage rate increases by £1, or if the cost of capital increases by £1?
