Answer:
Profit maximizing price of the firm = 50 cents
Average total cost of e-book = $10.5
Explanation:
As per the data given in the question,
Maximum annual profit = $35,000
It sells = 15,000 copies
Expense rate = 50 cent
Company must spend = $150,000
Here, Profit maximizing price of the firm = marginal cost (Expense rate)
So, Profit maximizing price of the firm = 50 cents
As per the following formula,
Average total cost = Total cost ÷ Quantity of output
= ((0.5 × 15,000) + $150,000) ÷ 15,000
= $10.5
