Answer: higher than market equilibrium quantity where cost of supplying the unit is more than the willingness to pay

Explanation:

A subsidy is a sum of money that is given to a business or an organization by the government in order to increase the supply and also keep the prices low.

Therefore, a subsidy such as a subsidy for producing corn in the United States can be considered inefficient because a subsidy results in a quantity that is higher than market equilibrium quantity whereby cost of supplying the unit will exceed the willingness to pay.

Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

cost formula: Total cost = F + (V x Q) = $4,500 + ($0.75 x Q)

  • F = fixed costs = $4,500
  • V = variable costs = $0.75 per guest day
  • Q = number of guest days

Explanation:

month                      occupancy              supplies expenses

march                           4,000                         $7,500

april                              6,500                         $8,250

may                              8,000                        $10,500

june                             10,500                       $12,000

july                               12,000                       $13,500

august                           9,000                       $10,750

september                    7,500                         $9,750

high activity level        12,000                       $13,500

low activity level           4,000                        $7,500

variation                        8,000                        $6,000

variable cost per guest-day = $6,000 / 8,000 = $0.75

fixed costs per month = $13,500 - (12,000 x $0.75) = $4,500

cost formula: Total cost = F + (V x Q)

F = fixed costs = $4,500

V = variable costs = $0.75 per guest day

Q = number of guest days

You can now sell 40 cars per month at $20,000 per car, and demand is increasing at a rate of 3 cars per month each month. What i
MArishka [77]

Answer:

More than $1500 price per car per month has to be dropped.

Explanation:

Given:

price per car = $20,000

car sale per month = 40

rate of increase in demand = 3

Solution:

Revenue R = Price × Quantity = P * Q

From the above given data

P = 20,000

Q = 40

R = P*Q

dQ/dt = 3

We have to find the rate at which the price is to be dropped before monthly revenue starts to drop.

R = P*Q

dR/dt = (dP/dt)Q + P(dQ/dt)  

          = (dP/dt) 40 + 20,000*3 < 0

          = (dP/dt) 40 < 60,000

         = dP/dt < 60000/40

         = dP/dt < 1,500

Hence the price has to be dropped more than $1,500 before monthly revenue starts to drop.
