A manufacturer estimates that its product can be produced at a total cost of C(x) = 50,000 + 100x + x3 dollars. If the manufactu

timofeeve [1]

Answer:

The level of production x that will maximize the profit is: 22,966

Explanation:

C(x) = 50,000 + 100x + x³

R(x) = 3400x

P(x) = R(x) - C(x)

= 3400x - [50,000 + 100x + x³]

= 3400x - 50,000 - 100x - x³

= 3300x - 50,000 - x³ .................... (A)

P'(x) = 3300(1) - 0 - 3x²

= 3300 - 3x²

At a critical point, P'(x) = 0

∴ 0 = 3300 - 3x²

3x² = 3300

x² = 1100

x = ± $\sqrt{1100}$

P"(x) = -6x

P( $\sqrt{1100}$ ) = -6 ( $\sqrt{1100}$ ) < 0

by second derivative, 'P' max at x = $\sqrt{1100}$ = 33.17 (rounds)

since x = $\sqrt{1100}$ ,

recall that P(x) = 3300x - 50,000 - x³ from equation (A)

Therefore, Maximum Profit

P( $\sqrt{1100}$ ) = 3300 $\sqrt{1100}$ - 50000 - $\sqrt{1100} ^{3}$

= 3300(33.17) - 50,000 - 33.17³

= 109461 -50,000 - 36495.26

= 22,965.74

Maximum profit is 22,966 to the nearest whole number

Which type of agreement assures that a broker will receive compensation regardless of who procures the buyer?a. Net listingb. Ex

natita [175]

Answer:

b. Exclusive right to sell

Explanation:

-Net listing is when the agent is able to keep the difference when a property is sold for more than the asking price.

-Exclusive right to sell is when the seller gives the agent the right to market the property and accepts to pay the comission to the agent if the property is sold during the period of the listing.

-Open listing is when a property has different agents and the one that gets the buyer receives the comission.

-Exclusive agency is when the seller gives an agent the right to market a property but the seller is able to sell the property to a buyer that was not found by the agent and in that case, the seller doesn't have to pay the comission to the agent.

According to this, the answer is that the type of agreement that assures that a broker will receive compensation regardless of who procures the buyer is exclusive right to sell because the agent is granted the right to sell the property and the seller agrees to pay the comission if the property is sold during the time of the listing last and it doesn't matter who finds the buyer.

dlinn [17]

Answer:

Mitigate her damages.

Explanation:

In this scenario, Velma contracts with Gordon, who agrees to build a stone retaining wall and French drain on her property. The wall and drain are necessary to prevent erosion of her land, which is falling into the creek on her property at a rapid rate. If Gordon breaches the contract by failing to get to work, Velma is under a legal obligation to mitigate her damages.

Velma has the legal rights and responsibilities to make sure she does anything humanly possible to reduce or lessen the damages to her property.

She could sue Gordon for not getting to work or failing to start work thereby causing more damage.

On January 1, 2013 Vick Company purchased a trademark for $400,000, which had an estimated useful life of 16 years. In January 2

antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

$30,000

Explanation:

Usually, patents do not have a salvage value. If the useful life is 16 years, the amortization rate will be 1/16 x 100

=0.0625 x 100

=6.25%

Before January 2017, the trademark had been amortized for four years ( 2013, 2014, 2015, and 2016.)

Amortization per year = 6.25% x $400,000

=0.0625 x $400,000

=$25,000 per year: Four year amortization would be

=$25,000 x 4

=$100,000

The Book value as of January 2017 will be

=$400,000 -$100,000

=$300,000

add legal fee

=$300,000 + $60,000

=$360,000

remaining useful life = 16 -4 years = 12 years.

new depreciation rate = 1/12 x 100

=0.08333

Depreciation amount for 2017

= 0.08333 x $360,000

=$30,000
