Answer:
A. reflects the enjoyment a consumer receives from consuming a particular set of goods and services
Explanation:
When modeling consumer behavior, utility reflects the enjoyment a consumer receives from consuming a particular set of goods and services
Answer
A. MRP = Change in revenue / Change in Labor
For first worker = 60 + 59 + 58 + 57 + 56 = 290/1 = $290
Since he produces 5 units.
Second Worker = 55 + 54 + 53 + 52 = 216/1 = $174
Since he produces 4.
Similarly,
Third worker = 51 + 50 + 49 = $150
Fourth worker = 48 + 47 = $95
Fifth worker = $46
B. Now all units are charged at $50
First worker = 5*50 = $250
Second = 4*50 = $200
third = 3*50 = $150
and so on.
C. If the wage is $210 it will demand workers until the MRP decreases below 210 and that happens for worker 2 here.
Since he can produce only $200 for $210 wage, he should not be hired. Hence only one worker will be hired here
D. If the wage falls to $97 the demand for workers will increase, again for worker 4 MRP is $100 which is above $97 and worker 5 goes below.
Answer:
Explanation:
Given the following data about Dayna's Doorstep Inc(DD) :
Cost given by; C = 100 - 5Q + Q^2
Demand ; P = 55 - 2Q
A.) Set price to maximize output;
Marginal revenue (MR) = marginal cost (MC)
MR = taking first derivative of total revenue with respect to Q; (55 - 2Q^2)
MC = taking first derivative of total cost with respect to Q; (-5Q + Q^2)
MR = 55 - 4Q ; MC = 2Q - 5
55 - 4Q = 2Q - 5
60 = 6Q ; Q = 10
From
P = 55 - 2Q ;
P = 55 - 2(10) = $35
Output
35(10) - [100-5(10)+10^2]
350 - 150 = $200
Consumer surplus:
0.5Q(55-35)
0.5(10)(20) = $100
B.) Here,
Marginal cost = Price
2Q - 5 = 55 - 2Q
4Q = 60 ; Q = 15
P= 55 - 2(15) = $25
Totally revenue - total cost:
(25)(15) - [100-(5)(15)+15^2] = $125
Consumer surplus(CS) :
0.5Q(55-25) = 0.5(15)(30) = $225
C.) Dead Weight loss between Q=10 and Q=15, which is the area below the demand curve and above the marginal cost curve
=0.5×(35-15) ×(15-10)
=0.5×20×5 = $50
D.) If P=$27
27 = 55 - 2Q
2Q = 55 - 27
Q = 14
CS = 0.5×14×(55 - 27) = $196
DWL = 0.5(1)(4) = $2
