A firm is producing 24 units of output. At the 24th unit of output, marginal revenue is $5, and marginal cost is $4; at the 25th

unit of output, marginal revenue is $4.50, and marginal cost is $4.50; at the 26th unit of output, marginal revenue is $4, and marginal cost is $5. This firm made the correct choice by producing only 24 units of output and then stopping. True / False.

Answer:

False.

Explanation:

(1) Units produced = 24 units of output

At the 24th unit of output,

Marginal revenue = $5

Marginal cost = $4

MR ≠ MC

At the 25th unit of output,

Marginal revenue = $4.50

Marginal cost = $4.50

MR = MC

At the 26th unit of output,

Marginal revenue = $4

Marginal cost = $5

MR ≠ MC

A firm maximizes its profit at a point where the marginal revenue is equal to the marginal cost i.e. MR = MC.

It is clear from the above scenario that this firm doesn't stop at 24 units of output because at this point of production profit maximizing condition is not fulfilled which means MR ≠ MC.

This firm should stopped at 25 units of output where marginal revenue is equal to the marginal cost from the 25th unit of output.

Bassett Fruit Farm expects its EBIT to be $373,000 a year forever. Currently, the firm has no debt. The cost of equity is 13.2 p
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is $1,836,742.42.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the given data are as follows:

EBIT = $373,000

Cost of equity = 13.2%

Tax rate = 35%

So, we can calculate the unlevered value of the firm by using following formula:

Unlevered value of the firm = EBIT × (1 - TAX RATE) ÷ COST OF EQUITY

By putting the value, we get

Unlevered value of the firm = $373,000 × ( 1 - 35%) ÷ 13.2%

= $373,000 × 0.65 ÷ 0.132

= $242,450 ÷ 0.132

= $1,836,742.42

Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

To calculate the elasticity of demand, we need to use mid point elasticity theory.

According to mid point theory,

Ed = [(Q2 - Q1) / {(Q1 + Q2) / 2}] / [(P2 - P1) / {(P1 + P2) / 2}]

Where, Ed = Elasticity o demand

Q1 = Initial quantity = 100

Q2 = New Quantity = 300

P1 = Initial price = $2.75

P2 = New price = $2.25

Ed = [(300 - 100) / {(100 + 300) / 2}] / [(2.25 - 2.75) / {(2.75 + 2.25) / 2}]

Ed = - 5.

a. So, the elasticity of demand is - 5 or in absolute term 5.

b. As the value of elasticity is more than 1, that means, the elasticty over the price range in elastic.

c. From theory, we knew that, when the demand is elastic, then a decrease in price causes a increase in total revenue. Because, as the demand elasticity is elastic, so the increase in output is higher than decrease in price.

Total revenue will increase
