Answer: Revenue is maximum at x=25 and y=0. That is when the firm makes only yellow cakes and no strawberry cakes.

Explanation:

x- Number of Yellow cakes

y- Number of Strawberry cakes

Time constrain is given by

2x+3y\leq 450

x\geq 0

y\geq 0

Revenue is given by,

TR= 25x + 35y

At the vertices, revenue is

At (0,0)

TR = $0

At (0,150)

TR = 25(0) + 35(150) = $5,250

At (225,0)

TR = 25(225) + 35(0) = $5,625

Therefore, Revenue is maximum at x=25 and y=0. That is when the firm makes only yellow cakes and no strawberry cakes.

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

Instructions are listed below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

A machine costing $251,800 was purchased May 1. The machine should be obsolete after three years and, therefore, no longer useful to the company. The estimated salvage value is $3,400.

A) Straight-line:

Annual depreciation= (original cost - salvage value)/estimated life (years)

Annual depreciation= (251,800 - 3,400)/3= $82,800

B) Double declining balance:

Annual depreciation= 2*[(original cost - residual value)/estimated life (years)]

Year 1= (248,400/3)*2= 165,600

Year 2= 55,200

Year 3= 18,400

The cross-price elasticity of demand measures the a. percentage change in the quantity demanded of one good in one location divi
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

d. percentage change in the quantity demanded of one good divided by the percentage change in the price of another good.

Explanation:

Price-demand elasticity measures the demand sensitivity of a good when a change in the price of another good occurs. For example, what happens to the demand for bread when the price of butter varies? This depends on the cross elasticity of demand since these goods tend to be complementary.

 The price elasticity of cross demand between two goods is easily calculated by a formula where the numerator is the change in the quantity of a good and the denominator is the percentage change in the price of the complementary good.

If the calculation of elasticity is greater than 1, it means that the amount demanded for bread is sensitive (elastic) to the price of butter and tends to vary sharply. If the result is between 0 and 1, the demand is inelastic, that is, the amount of bread demanded will not change considerably when the price of butter varies. If the calculation is equal to 1, then the demand for bread varies perfectly with the price of butter.

The situation where the quantity supplied of a good is greater than the quantity demanded at
aliina [53]

Answer:

Excess supply

Explanation:

Demand is the quantity required or requested by buyers while supply is the quantity of a good that a producer is able to supply to the buyer.

When demand is equal to supply there is equilibrium and no excess in demand or supply.

However when the amount supplied exceeds the demand for a product there will be excess product in the market. This is called excess supply.

Conversely when the quantity demanded is more than that supplied it is excess demand
