Q2. Suppose that you can sell as much of a product (in integer units) as you like at $60 per unit. Your marginal cost (MC) for producing the qth unit is given by: MC=7qMC=7q This means that each unit costs more to produce than the previous one (e.g., the first unit costs 7*1, the second unit (by itself) costs 7*2, etc.). If fixed costs are $100, what is the profit at the optimal integer output level? Please specify your answer as an integer.

Suppose your farm produces grain in a perfectly competitive industry. Currently, you can sell a bushel of grain at $15 per unit. You are producing where marginal revenue equals marginal cost, yielding an output level of 200,000 bushels. At your current level of output, variable costs are $3,340,000 and fixed costs are $150,000. a) What is your current economic profit in the short-run from production? b) Given the correct answer to part a), should you continue producing this output level...

A firm produces a product in a competitive industry and has a total cost function (TC) of TC(a) 60+4q+2q2 and a marginal cost function (MC) of MC(q) = 4 + 4q. At the given market price (P) of $20, the firm is producing 4.00 units of output. Is the firm maximizing profit?V What quantity of output should the firm produce in the long run? The firm should produce unit(s) of output. (Enter your response as an integer.)

Question 3 A monopolist can produce at a constant average and marginal cost of ATC- MC demand demand curve given by Q-53-P. $5. It faces a market 1. Calculate the profit maximizing price and quantity for this monopolist. Also calculte its profits. 2. Suppose a secod firm enters the market.

Currently, demand elasticity for the product you produce is ep= -2 and you sell Q1=10 at P1=8. Your total cost is fixed at $4 per unit produced. A client would like to purchase Q2=15 at a lower price (P2). Compute P2 and determine if it would be profitable to satisfy your client. What range of prices would generate profit for you?

23. A competitive firm can sell its product for a price of $3 in the market (there is a reason the word competitive is underlined and in bold!). Total costs are given below. Fill in the following columns in the table: price, total revenue, marginal revenue, marginal costs, variable costs, fixed costs, profit, and average total cost. (Hint if you get stuck: what are variable costs at a quantity of 0? Therefore, what are fixed costs?). Quantity Price TR MR ...

Assume that a competitive firm has the total cost function: TC=1q3−40q2+740q+1500 Suppose the price of the firm's output (sold in integer units) is $750 per unit. Using calculus and formulas (but no tables and restricting your use of spreadsheets to implementing the quadratic formula) to find a solution, what is the total profit at the optimal integer output level? Please specify your answer as an integer. Hint 1: The first derivative of the total cost function, which is cumulative, is...

Suppose that oil is perfectly divisible (you can buy non-integer quantities). The marginal cost curve is given by MC=1.5Q + 2. The demand curve is given by P =32 - 1.8Q, which gives MR=32-3.6Q In the most efficient outcome (which perfectly competitive markets achieve), P=MC. Solve the equilibrium price and quantity in that case. The most efficient equilibrium quantity is Blank 1. Calculate the answer by read surrounding text. .

b) Suppose the single-price monopolist chooses to sell 16 units of output instead of 15 units of output. There are 2 effects that arise because the firm being a single-price monopolist must lower the price on all units itsells. What is the 1* effect and what is the 2nd effect? Hint Read Chapter 10 Overheads. c) What level of output and what price would maximize total revenue for the monopoly? Explain or show clearly how you arrived at your answer....
