Answer:

a. What are the firm's weekly economic profits?

  • The company's weekly economic profit = total revenue - total accounting cost - total opportunity costs = (600 units x $40) - $6,000 = $24,000 - $6,000 = $18,000

b. What is the firm's marginal cost?

  • since the firm is maximizing its profits, its marginal revenue = marginal cost. Since the marginal revenue of the last unit sold was $25, then the marginal cost of the last unit sold must also be $25.

c. What is the firm's average total cost?

  • the firm's average total cost = total cost / total output = $6,000 / 600 units = $10 per unit

Answer:

$309

Explanation:

The computation of the gross earning for the week is as follows:

Given that

Payment of $7.15 × 8 = $57.2  or payment of  each unit produced whichever is greater

On monday

= 90 units × $0.60

=  $54

But the greater is $57.2

On tuesday

= 114 units × $0.60

=  $68.4

On Wednesday

= 82 units × $0.60

= $49.20

But the greater is $57.2

On thursday

= 112 units × $0.60

= $67.20

On friday

= 98 units × $0.60

= $58.80

Now the earnings for the last week is

= $57.20 + $68.4 + $57.20 + $67.20 + $58.80

= $308.80

= $309

Gennadij [26K]

Answer: ($24100)

Explanation:

The annual financial advantage (disadvantage) for the company goes thus:

The relevant cost to produce will be:

= ($4.10 × 19,000) + ($8.70 × 19,000) + ($9.20 × 19,000) + ($4.60 × 19,000) + $31,000

= $77900 + $165300 + $174800 + $87400 + $31000

= $536,400

The relevant costs to buy will be:

= 19,000 × $29.5

= $560,500

Since the relevant cost to buy is more than the relevant cost to produce, then the financial disadvantage will be:

= $560500 - $536,400

= $24,100

The answer is ($24,100)
