Answer:

units of output  = 2 units

fixed cost = 8

Explanation:

given data

SMC = 2 + 4Q

AVC = 2 + 2Q

to find out

how many units of output will it produce at a market price and what level of fixed cost will this firm earn zero economic profit

solution

we know here that  under perfect competition

so at the equilibrium here Price (P)  will be = MC

P = MC = 10

and

SMC = 2 + 4Q ,

P = 2 + 4Q

10 = 2 + 4Q

Q = 2 units

and

at zero economic profit we get

TR = TC    

TR = P × Q

TR = 10 × 2

TR = 20

so

TC = TFC + TVC

20 = TFC + 12    

TFC  = 8

because here [ TVC = AVC × Q ]

[ TVC = (2 + 2 × 2) × 2 ]  

[ TVC = 12 ]

Answer:

10%

Explanation:

Value of investment in the beginning = $30,000

Value of investment at the end = $30,000 (1 + 0.08)

                                                    = $30,000 × 1.08

                                                    = $32,400

Interest paid = $15,000 × 6%

                     = $900

Rate of return:

=\frac{Value\ at\ the\ end-Value\ in\ beginning-Interest}{Total\ amount-Borrowed\ amount}\times100

=\frac{32,400-30,000-900}{30,000-15,000}\times 100

=\frac{1,500}{15,000}\times 100

      = 10%

Rate of return is 10% if the price of Telecom stock goes up by 8% during the next year.
