Answer:
Profit maximising price = 48
Explanation:
Total Cost : C (x) = 8x + 3
Demand Curve : p (x) = 88 − 2x
Total Revenue = p (x). x = x (88 - 2x) = 88x - 2x^2
Profit maximisation is where Marginal Cost (MC) = Marginal Revenue (MR)
MC = d TC / d Q = d (8x + 3) / d x = 8
MR = d TR / d Q = d (88x - 2x^2) / d x = 88 - 4x
Equating MR & MC ,
88 - 4x = 8 , 88 - 8 = 4x
x = 80 / 4 , x = 20
Putting value in demand curve,
p = 88 - 2x = 88 - 2 (20) = 88 - 40
p = 48
The answer is A. Hope I could help.
Answer:
sell bonds, increase discount rates and increase reserve requirements
Explanation:
The Federal Reserve’s three instruments of monetary policy are open market operations, the discount rate and reserve requirements ( Sometimes discount rate management is divided as discount and interest rate) .
Open market operations involve the buying and selling of government securities. The term “open market” means that the Fed doesn’t decide on its own which securities dealers it will do business with on a particular day. Rather, the choice emerges from an “open market” in which the various securities dealers that the Fed does business with – the primary dealers – compete on the basis of price. Open market operations are flexible, and thus, the most frequently used tool of monetary policy.
The discount rate is the interest rate charged by Federal Reserve Banks to depository institutions on short-term loans.
Reserve requirements are the portions of deposits that banks must maintain either in their vaults or on deposit at a Federal Reserve Bank.
Answers are:
<span>Producers supply the exact goods that consumers buy.
Consumers have enough goods, at the given price
</span><span>Producers use their resources efficiently
At the equilibrium price, the quantity bought= quantity sold. Consumers have enough goods at the given price, meaning that there isn't anyone who wants to buy the good at that price but can't, and producers use their resources efficiently.
The whole economy does not waste resources, since this is the market-efficient outcome, and there aren't many shortages or surpluses for the same reason. </span>
