Answer:
The correct option is a. $61.25.
Explanation:
Note: The correct cost function of the farmer is as follows:
C(Q) = 0.05Q^2 ……………….. (1)
Differentiating equation
MC = C’(Q) = 0.1Q
P = Expected price = (25% * $3) + (50% * $3.50) + (25% * $4) = $3.50 ……. (2)
Since profit is maximized when MC = P, we equate equations (1) and solve for Q which is the expected profit-maximizing quantity as follows:
0.1Q = 3.50
Q = 3.50 / 0.1 = 35
Substituting Q = 35 into equation (1), we have:
C(Q) = 0.05 * 35^2 = $61.25
R(Q) = Maximum expected revenue = P * Q = $3.50 * 350 = $122.50
The farmer's maximum expected profit = R(Q) - C(Q) = $122.50 - $61.25 = $61.25
Therefore, the correct option is a. $61.25.

Answer:
A) 14.72 hours
B) An additional worker should be hired since the lost work time is 14.72 hours
Explanation:
Number of machines on manufacturing line = 8
percentage of machine been down = 23%
number of workers capable of running and repairing machines = 2
machine productivity ( per machine ) = 18 units/hour
overhead cost / machine = $713
hourly rate paid per worker = $15
Total number of work hours = 8 hour
A) calculate Total amount of lost worktime
= number of machines * Total number of work hours * 23%
= 8 * 8 * 23% = 14.72 hours
B) An additional worker should be hired since the lost work time is 14.72 hours
Answer: Purchases could be made from a vendor controlled by a buyer at prices higher than normal.
Explanation:
Based on the information given in the question, one possible fault of this system is that the purchases could be made from a vendor controlled by a buyer at prices higher than normal.

Answer:
Interest Expense $6,446,360
Interest Payable $7,000,000
Explanation:
Interest Expense for the year =
Issued amount * Effective interest rate * 
$644,636,000 * 0.06 * 2/12 = $6,446,360
Interest Payable =
Face Value of the bond * Interest rate *
$600,000,000 * 0.07 * 2/12 = 7,000,000
