Answer and Explanation:

a and b. The average total cost and the marginal cost is shown below:

As we know that

Average cost is

= Total cost ÷ total number of customer loads

And, the Marginal cost is

= Additional total cost incurred for extra units generated

So based on this, the marginal cost and the average total cost are as follows

Customer load level   Total cost  Average cost   Marginal cost

     0                               $27

     1                                 $30          $30 ÷ 1 = 30        30 - 27 = 3

    2                                 $32          $32 ÷ 2 = 16        32 - 30 = 2

    3                                 $35        $35 ÷ 3 = 11.67     35 - 32 = 3

    4                                  $38        $38 ÷ 4 = 9.5       38 - 35 = 3

    5                                  $42       $42 ÷ 5 = 8.4       42 - 38 = 4

    6                                  $48       $48 ÷ 6 = 8          48 - 42 = 6

    7                                  $57        $57 ÷ 7 = 8.14      57 - 48 = 9

    8                                  $68       $68 ÷ 8 = 8.5      68 - 57 = 11

c. Now the customer loan you want is

As we know that

Profit = Marginal revenue - marginal cost

And, as we can see that at marginal cost 9 we can load 7 customers so the 7 customers would be wanted

KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

The answer is: A) When the marginal cost of producing an additional unit equals the marginal revenue from that unit.

Explanation:

In economics, we assume that a company´s main goal is to maximize its profit. In order for any company do to this, the marginal cost (MC) of producing an extra unit of production must equal the marginal revenue (MR) obtained by selling that extra unit of production.

Theoretically, in perfect market conditions, MR=MC in the equilibrium point between quantity supplied and quantity demanded. But on real world conditions elasticity of both demand and supply alter the curves.

Use the following information to answer the question(s) below. A company near a large city is required to keep its smokestack po
meriva

Answer:

Over this 10-year period, the benefit to cost ratio is:

= 1.33.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Cost of additional anti-pollution equipment = $2 million

Estimated useful life of the equipment = 10 years

Additional annual labor cost for equipment usage = $100,000

This gives a total labor cost of $1 million over the 10-year period.

Therefore, the total cost = $3 million

Savings (benefits) from lowering the air pollutants in the region = $4 million in medical expenses.

The benefit-to-cost ratio (BCR) = $4/$3 = 1.33

b) The Benefit-to-cost ratio (BCR) is a cost–benefit analysis that summarizes the value-for-money of a project by expressing the relationship between the project's benefits and costs in monetary terms. The BCR shows the future profitability of investment alternatives or options. It is normally expressed in terms of net present value.
