Briefly explain using a graph whether given statement is true or false. ‘To maximise profit, a firm should produce the quantity where the difference between marginal revenue and marginal cost is the greatest. If a firm produces more than this quantity, then the profit made on each additional unit will be falling.’

5. Consider total cost and total revenue given in the following table: a. Calculate profit for each quantity. How much should the firm produce to maximize profit? b. Calculate marginal revenue and marginal cost for each quantity. Graph them. (Hint: Put the points between whole numbers. For example, the marginal cost between 2 and 3 should be graphed at 2/½.) c. At what quantity do the curves in part b cross? How does this relate to your answer to part a.? d. Can you...
