Be sure to plot from left to right and to plot between integers. For example, if Erin's marginal cost of increasing her production from one haircut to two haircuts is x, then you would plot a point at (1.5, x). Line segments will automatically connect the points.

If Erin gave more haircuts than her optimal quantity of haircuts, which of the following statements would be true? Check all that apply. Erin's profit (total revenue minus total cost) would decline. Erin's marginal revenue would be less than her marginal cost.

She is the only person in town cutting hair on Saturdays and therefore has some market power. Assume that she does not incur fixed costs, and the only significant variable cost to Erin is her time. As she gives more haircuts, Erin must increasingly forgo other valuable Saturday activities. For example, if she gives one haircut, she forgoes reading the paper after breakfast. If she gives two haircuts, she gives up reading the paper and sleeping an extra half-hour. Erin's clients are a varied group willing to pay between $16.00 and $28.00 for a haircut. Assume that Erin cannot price discriminate, i.e., charge different clients different prices. If Erin charges $28.00 per haircut, she will have one client per week; if she charges $24.00, she will have two; if she charges $20.00, three, and so forth. The following table contains data on the revenues and costs of Erin's haircut business as a function of her price- quantity choice. (The costs are based on the value of Erin's alternative activities, in dollar terms. For example, the total cost of the first haircut is $4- the value Erin places on reading the newspaper after breakfast.) Fill in the missing cells of the table and then use them to answer the questions that follow.

Be sure to graph from left to right, starting with zero haircuts and ending with five. Line segments will automatically connect the points. Sunny 04 Total Revenue (?) Search
