Assume that the short-run cost and demand data given in the tables below confront a monopolistic competitor selling a given prod
REY [17]

Profit is maximized when Q = 4 and P = $40, with maximum profit = $90.

<u>Explanation:</u>

(a)  (i) Marginal cost (MC) = Change in Total cost (TC) by Change in output (Q)

(ii) Total revenue (TR) = Price (P) into Q

(iii) Marginal revenue (MR) = Change in TR by Change in Q

(iv) Profit = TR - TC

Therefore:

Q  TC  MC  P  TR  MR  PROFIT

0  25   60  0   -25

1  40  15  55  55  55  15

2  45  5  50  100  45  55

3  55  10  45  135  35  80

4  70  15  40  160  25  90

5  90  20  35  175  15  85

6  115  25  30  180  5  65

7  145  30  25  175  -5  30

8  180  35  20  160  -15  -20

9  220 40  15  135  -25  -85

10  265 45  10  100  -35  -165

When Q = 4, MR = $25 and MC = $15, so MR > MC. When Q = 5, MR = $15 and MC = $20, so MR < MC. Therefore,  

Profit is maximized when Q = 4 and P = $40, with maximum profit = $90.

(b)  In the long run, new firms will enter the market by being attracted by positive short run profit. Therefore in long run, demand for individual firm will decrease, price for individual firm will decrease and profit will decrease until each existing firm earns zero economic profit.

Casassa, a merchant in San Francisco, under the terms of a nonshipment contract, agrees to sell 50 cases of packaged macaroni to
Ugo [173]

Answer:

Fresno

Explanation:

A contract can be defined as an agreement between two or more parties (group of people) which gives rise to a mutual legal obligation or enforceable by law.

There are different types of contract in business and these includes: fixed-price contract, cost-plus contract, bilateral contract, implies contract, unilateral contract, adhesion contract, unconscionable contract, option contract, express contract, executory contract, etc.

The uniform commercial code (UCC) is a set of standardized business laws which are put in place for the regulation of financial contracts and commercial transactions used across different states in the United States of America. There are special rules known as the special business standards that are set up by UCC governing merchants and the sales of goods in Article 2 of the Uniform Commercial Code.

Under Article 2 of the Uniform Commercial Code, a shipment contract between two parties (buyer and seller) states that a buyer bears the risk of loss and is typically responsible for the costs of goods in the event of any damage or loss incurred during transportation and prior to receiving the goods.

In this scenario, the transaction is a nonshipment contract and the place for delivery is not specified in the agreement.

However, on the basis of the facts that both parties are aware that the 50 cases of packaged macaroni are in a warehouse in Fresno, the place for delivery is Fresno.
