Answer:
The firm should increase output and reduce price
Explanation:
For a monopolist, there can be one of the following three scenarios at a time point in time:
Scenario one, MR = MC: For a monopolist, profit is maximized at the point where marginal revenue (MR) is equal to to marginal cost (MC), i.e. where MR = MC.
Scenario two, MR < MC: But when the MR < MC, it indicates that the monopolist is currently producing a higher quantity of output and it is not maximizing profit. In order to maximize profit, the monopolist has to reduce output until MR = MC.
Scenario three , MR > MC: But when the MR > MC, it indicates that the monopolist is currently producing a lower quantity of output and it is not maximizing profit. In order to maximize profit, the monopolist has to increase output until MR = MC. Also, the monopolist has to reduce price in order to sell the increased quantity of output.
From the question, the monopolist falls into scenerio three as MR > MC, i.e. $45 > $35. Therefore, the monopolist should increase output until MR = MC and reduce price in order to maximize profit.

Answer:
Total= $4.33
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Breakmorning Corporation produces a product that requires 2.6 pounds of materials per unit. The allowance for waste is 0.3 pounds; the allowance for spoilage is 0.1 pounds. The purchase price is $4 per pound, but a 2% discount is always taken. Freight costs are $0.15 per pound and receiving and handling costs are $0.10 per pound.
Purchase price= 4*0.98= 3.92
Allowance for waste= (0.03*3.92)= 0.1176
Allowance for spoilage= (0.01*3.92)= 0.0392
Freight= 0.15
Receiving and handling= 0.10
Total= $4.33
