Answer:

c. $10,000.

Explanation:

Gross domestic product is the sum total of all goods produced in a country in a given period. Sale of used good are not considered in GDP because the original value of the used item would have been recorded previously as GDP when it was first produced.

Therefore in this scenario the money paid for the house ($250,000) is not considered to be part of GDP since the original value of $90,000 would have been recorded as GDP 10 years ago.

However the commission of $10,000 that the real estate agent collected for his services is considered a contribution to GDP.

The marginal cost is given at MC.

The subsidy is equal to s.  

When the subsidy is provided to only a single firm, that firms marginal cost will decline. The firm can take advantage of decreased marginal cost by increasing the output level.

Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

350,000

And if done per unit, $3.50

Explanation:

Both sales and variable cost are dependent on the number of units sold.

The sales less the variable cost gives the contribution margin. The contribution margin less the fixed cost gives the net operating income.

The target cost of the product is the difference between the selling price and the anticipated profit.

Target cost per unit

= $6.00 - $2.50

= $3.50

Total Target cost = $3.50 * 100,000

= $350,000
