The following is the demand curve for widgets P=120 - 1.5Q Total revenue= 120Q - 1.5Q^2 Marginal revenue = 120 - 3Q 1) At what level of output is total revenue maximized and what is the corresponding price? 2) what is the value of marginal revenue when the price is $90? 3) what is the point price elasticity when the price is $90?
4. (6 points) Suppose the Demand for baseballs is given by Q=120 - 4P. a) What is the price elasticity of demand when P=102 b) At what price will Total Revenue be maximized? c) What is the firm's Marginal Revenue when the price is $12?
Suppose a price searching firm faces a demand curve given by Q = 30−.5P, and has an average cost curve given by AC = 8. a. Find the equations for the marginal revenue curve and the marginal cost curve. b. Find the profit maximizing level of output and the profit maximizing price. At this combination, what is the level of firm profit? What is the level of deadweight loss?
3. Suppose that Bob's widgets faces a downward sloping demand curve given by Q 100-4P. If Bob's marginal cost of production is $2 per unit, what is his profit maximizing level of output? His profit maximizing price?
Question 4 [18 points] Two firms in a particular industry face a market demand curve given by the equation P= 120 -0.25Q. The marginal cost is $40 per unit and the marginal revenue is MR= 120 -0.5Q. a) Draw the demand curve to scale on a diagram, and then insert the corresponding marginal revenue curve and the MC curve. Note: When calculating your points, please round the numbers to the nearest whole number. Demand Demand Marginal Revenue Marginal Cost 1607...
3. The demand function for a good is given as P = 50 - 20. 1) Write down expressions for the TR and MR functions. 2) Find and classify the type of the point price elasticity at price P=10. 3) Calculate the output at which TR is a maximum, and use second order conditions to confirm that it is maximum. 4) Confirm that marginal revenue is zero at maximum point.
Question 3 (32 marks) a The market of popcom is perfectly competitive. The market demand curve and supply curve are as follows: Demand: Qp = 2000-P Supply: 2 = 1400 +2P Firm K is one of the many firms producing popcorn in the market. The total cost function and marginal cost function are as follows: TC(q) =1250 +30 +29 MC(q) - 30 +49 i At what output level (g) would the average total cost be minimized? (6 marks) ii What...
The following questions are based upon the firm demand curve for a food given by: Q = 12-4P+2Px+8INC Where Q is the quantity demanded, P is the price of the good, Px is the price of another good, and INCis income. 1. (1 pt.) If P=10, Px=10 and INC=20, what is the price elasticity of demand, Ep? 2. (1 pt.) At P=10, this firm is pricing on the elastic/inelastic region of its demand curve. 3. (1 pt.) At P=10, the...
