All Clean is the only company selling all-in-one washer–dryer machines. The price of a machine is P, while Q is the quantity of machines sold per quarter. After the firm implements sales commission, demand for these washer-dryer machines decreases. With the new cost functions, the following equations describe the new market for All Clean'smachines:
Demand: P = 300 – 2.5Q ♦ Total Cost: TC = 2000 + 150Q + 2.5Q2 ♦ Marginal Cost: MC = 150 + 5Q
_____________________________________________________
Given the changes in demand and costs, what is All Clean'snew profit-maximizing quantity? (Hint: consider finding the MR curve; remember the slope is twice the slope of the demand curve)

Problem 1e. The slope
of the demand curve indicates that if the price of Fluff increases
by 20 cents, consumers will buy one less unit. Determine what
happens to profit if price is increased by calculating the new
profit level for Fluff when price is set 20 cents higher than the
profit-maximizing price.

This question introduces a fundamental result of taxation which will revisit in the last chapter. We can already see it at work through the following example: A firm faces the following demand curve: P = 120 – 0.02Q Where Q is weekly production and P is price, measured in cents per unit. The firm’s total cost function is given by TC = 60Q + 25,000. Assume that the firm maximizes profit. a. What is the level of production, price, and...
