Cost-benefit principle would state that you would only take an action if the benefit outweighs the cost.
For example: It may cost me $5 to drive to work, but I make $50 for showing up, I would go because the benefit I get outweighs the cost and I am better off going than staying at home.
Answer:
Firm should not shut down, as it is able to cover its Average Variable Cost
Explanation:
Perfect Competition firms in Short Run : The firms produce even if their average revenue (price) < their average total costs (AC). They continue production until Average variable cost (AVC) ≥ per unit price (P) i.e average revenue (AR). This is called Shut Down Point. P lower beyond AVC implies that firm won't continue even in short run.
Given : Variable Cost (VC) = 500 ; Revenue (R) = 510
Average Variable Costs & Average Revenue are variable costs & revenue, per unit quantity. AVC = VC / Q ; AR (P) = R / Q
R i.e 510 > VC i.e 500
So, R/ Q i.e AR is also > VC / Q i.e AVC
Since AVC > AR (P), firm should not shut down
Answer:
The correct answer is option d.
Explanation:
If a demand curve is linear and downward sloping, different points on the line can show different values of slope. The value of slope will be equal to the ratio of change in price to change in quantity demanded. The value of slope will be the same throughout the line.
The price elasticity is the ratio of change in quantity to change in price. The price elasticity can be different for different points on the demand curve.
The points on the lower parts are more inelastic while the points on the upper portion are more elastic. The midpoint represents unit price elasticity.
Since the upper portion is more price elastic, an increase in price will cause a more than proportionate decrease in the quantity demanded. This will cause the total revenue to decrease.
