Answer:

Fixed cost = constant term i.e 50

Variable cost = \frac{q^2}{2}

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Total Cost: TC = 50+\frac{q^2}{2}

here q is an individual firm's quantity produced

Demand QD = 160 − 4P

here P is the price and Q is the total quantity of the good

Now,

The Total cost = Fixed cost + Variable cost

here, Fixed is constant, while the variable cost varies with number of quantities being produced

Thus,

from the total cost function, we have

Fixed cost = constant term i.e 50

Variable cost = \frac{q^2}{2}

miv72 [106K]

Answer:

Net income for the year = $257,000

Explanation:

Retained earnings for the year= Net income - dividends paid.

Since no dividends were paid, retained earnings for the year = net income for the year. At the end of each accounting period, retained earnings are reported on the balance sheet, and the retained profits for the year are added to the beginning balance of retained earnings, to give a cumulative ending balance of  $2,499,000.

therefore retained earnings for the year = ending retained earnings balance  - beginning retained earnings balance = $2,499,000.-$2,242,000= $257,000.

Net income for the year is  thus =  $257,000 since no dividends were paid.
