Answer:

d. the firm will lose $750

Explanation:

marginal cost is the derivate of the cost function: It represent the cost of producting an additional unit

cost: 750 + 5q

dC/dQ = 5

We have determinate that marginal cost is $5 thus, we should price at the same value. The mistake from the goverment is to equalize marginal cost with price instead of marginal revenue.

This will make the firm loss the fixed component of the cost as will sale to pay up the variable cost.

The fixed cost is $750 so that is the loss from operations

The answer is $7 because Marginal revenue is the change in total revenue from 10 customers ($400) to 11 customers ($407)  How a monopolist maximizes profits

How does a monopolist determine its profit-maximizing level of output How does it determine the price that it charges?

The monopolist will select the profit-maximizing level of output where

                                      MR = MC

and then charge the price for that quantity of output as determined by the market demand curve. If that price is above average cost, the monopolist earns positive profits.

How a monopolist maximizes profits

 Because Chuck, a sole commercial airplane operator in small isolated town, has no  competition, he has complete control of market price of air travel in his small tone

 Reduced price → increase in ticket sales

 Monopoly maximizes profit by choosing an amount of profit in which marginal revenue  equals marginal cost (MR= MC)  Since Chuck must reduce his price to sell more units, he has an incentive to sell a  smaller quantity than a perfective competitive company

Katarina [22]

Answer:

The right alternative is Option b (Role of...............................shareholders only).

Explanation:

  • As per another invisible hand mode of philosophy, the business serves a wider community unless it serves its institutional investors.
  • Whenever the company makes money, the stockholders seem to be effective as well as the organization would be likely to succeed even though the organization across the financial institution seems to have an increased amount of unemployment.

Other selections are not comparable to just the example throughout the question. Therefore this option seems to be the appropriate one.
