Which of the following best represents the pricing behavior of firms in a monopolistically competitive industry?

allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

The correct answer is option B.

Explanation:

A monopolistic firm is characterized by a large number of buyers and sellers in the market producing differentiated products which are close substitutes, there are relatively easier entry and exit in the market.

In the given question, Teen Angle Hardware is looking for a niche or a slightly differentiated product to sell to teenagers. But is able to earn only a normal profit because there is a large number of firms in the market. And new firms can enter the market in the long run. So, this firm is an example of a monopolistic firm.

Income rises from $3,500 to $4,000 a month and the quantity demanded of good X falls from 7 to 5 units a month. Income elasticit

finlep [7]

Answer:

E) -2.50 ; inferior

Explanation:

Before you earned $3,500 per month, you consumed 7 units per month. That means that you consumed 1 unit every $500 earned.

When your income increased to $4,000, you only consumed 5 units per month. That means that your consumption decreased to 1 unit for every $800.

The income elasticity of demand using the midpoint method is calculated by using the following formula:

income elasticity = {change in quantity demanded / [(old quantity + new quantity) / 2]} / {change in income / [(old income + new income) / 2]}

= {-2 / [(7 + 5) / 2]} / {500 / [(3,500 + 4,000) / 2]} = (-2 / 6) / (500 / 3,750) = -0.333 / 0.133 = -2.5

Since the income elasticity of demand is negative, the good X is an inferior good.

The owner of an orange grove must decide when to pick one variety of oranges. She can sell them for $27 a bushel if she sells th

uysha [10]

Answer:

The oranges should be picked in 2 weeks for maximum return

Explanation:

We assume that the return of the owner is y ($)

Assume that the number of weeks the oranges should be picked to have maximum return is x (weeks). (x≥0)

If collect now, the price for each bushel is $27

As the price per bushel decrease by $1.50 per bushel each week

=> After x weeks, the price of a bushel decrease: 1.5x ($)

=> The price of 1 bushel after x weeks is: 27 - 1.5x ($)

If collect now, each tree can yield 7 bushels

As the yield increases by half a bushel per week for the next 5 weeks

=> After x weeks with x ≤ 5, each trees would yields: 7 + 0.5x (bushels)

The return = The price of each bushes × The quantity of bushels

=> $y = (27-1.5x)(7+0.5x)$

⇔ $y= 27 (7 +0.5x) - 1.5x(7+0.5x) = 189 + 13.5x - 10.5x - 0.75x^{2}$

⇔ $y = -0.75x^{2} +3x +189$

We have: if the equation has the form of $y =ax^{2} +bx +c$ with a≠0, its maximum value is: $max y = c - \frac{b^{2} }{4a}$

In the equation $y = -0.75x^{2} +3x +189$ , we have: a = -0.75; b = 3; c = 189

=> $max y = c -\frac{b^{2} }{4a} = 189 - \frac{3^{2} }{4.(-0.75)} = 189 - \frac{9}{-3} = 189 - (-3) = 189+3 = 192$

To look for the number of weeks, we should find x (0≤x≤5) with which y = 192

$192 = -0.75x^{2} +3x +189$

⇔ $-0.75x^{2} + 3x + 189 - 192 = 0$

⇔ $-0.75 x^{2} + 3x - 3 =0$

⇔ $-0.75x^{2} + 4*0.75x - 0.75*4 =0$

⇔ $x^{2} -4x + 4 = 0$

⇔ $(x-2)^{2} = 0$

⇔ x = 2

The oranges should be picked in 2 weeks for maximum return
