Answer:
The correct option is is A, predatory pricing
Explanation:
Predatory pricing is an illegal approach to pricing where a firm fixes a very low price in order to send competitors out of business.
This is very applicable to a firm that has economies of scale where its cost per unit reduces as more and more units are produced, making it possible to undercut competitors without feeling much impact in profitability.
This approach is against the anti-trust law as it paves for a monopoly market,where only one firm operating in the market determines the price which is not likely to be favorable to consumers
Answer:
AFC = 
MC = 
TC
AVC = 
AC = 
Explanation:
The cost function is given as 
.
The fixed cost here is 9, it will not be affected by the level of output.
The variable cost is 
.
AFC = 
MC = TC
MC =
MC = 2q
AVC =
AVC = 
AVC = q
AC =
AC = ![\frac{[tex]C=9+q^{2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B%5Btex%5DC%3D9%2Bq%5E%7B2%7D)
}{q}[/tex]
AC = 
Answer:
B) 0.7; inelastic
Explanation:
The computation of the absolute value of the price elasticity of demand is shown below:
Elasticity is
= [(Sales - prior sales) ÷ ( Sales + prior sales) ÷ 2] ÷ [(price - dropped price) ÷ (price - dropped price) ÷ 2
= [(1,040,000 - 890,000) ÷ (1,040,000 + 890,000) ÷ 2] ÷ [(25,000 - 20,000) ÷ (25,000 + 20,000) ÷ 2]
= (150,000 ÷ 965,000) ÷ (5,000 ÷ 22,500)
= 0.15 ÷ 0.22
= 0.7
It is less than one so the demand is inelastic
Answer:
The answer is a. $2,967.92
Explanation:
Calculation of prent value
Present value = p* (1+i)^-10
Present value = $4,500 * (1+0.0425)^-10= <u>$2,967.92</u>
