You manage a plant that​ mass-produces engines by teams of workers using assembly machines. The technology is summarized by the

production function qequals5KL where q is the number of engines per​ week, K is the number of assembly​ machines, and L is the number of labor teams. Each assembly machine rents for requals​$10 comma 000 per​ week, and each team costs wequals​$5 comma 000 per week. Engine costs are given by the cost of labor teams and​ machines, plus ​$3 comma 000 per engine for raw materials. Your plant has a fixed installation of 5 assembly machines as part of its design. The total cost of producing q units of output​ (TC) is:

Answer:

$2200

Explanation:

will be Lq25.The total cost function is thus given by the sum of the costs of capital, labor, and rawmaterials:TC(q) = rK +wL +2000q = (10,000)(5) + (5,000)(q25) + 2,000 qTC(q) = 50,000 +2200q.The average cost function is then given by:AC(q) TC ( q ) q  50,000  2200 q q . and the marginal cost function is given by: MC ( q )   TC  q  2200.

The Acmeville Metropolitan Bus Service currently charges $ 0.67 for an all-day ticket, and has an average of 472 riders a day. T
Otrada [13]

Answer:

The price elasticity of demand is -3.7

Explanation:

Price Elasticity of demand measure the responsiveness of demand against the change in price of the product.

Simple percentage method calculate the price elasticity by taking ratio of percentage change in Demand to percentage change in price of the product.

Percentage change in Demand = ( Revised demand - Initial demand ) / Initial demand  

Percentage change in Demand = ( 182 riders - 472 riders ) / 472 riders = -0.6144 = -61.44%  

Percentage change in Price = ( Revised Price - Initial Price ) / Initial Price  

Percentage change in Price = ( $0.78 - $0.67 ) / $0.67 = 0.1642 = 16.42%

Price Elasticity = Percentage change in Demand / Percentage change in price

Price Elasticity = -61.44% / 16.42% = -3.74 = -3.7

bixtya [17]

Full Question:

1) Conduct a 5 forces analysis of the brewery industry and explain why it’s a good or bad industry

2) Why has the beer industry been historically profitable? How are profits allocated among the “mega breweries?

3) How do you control supplier costs?

Answers:

1 Five Forces Analysis:

  1. Rivalry: Other Craft Breweries and “Better Beer” suppliers that may be able to create economies of scale and have better marketing efforts.
  2. Threat of Entry: Growing industry, home breweries are becoming more popular, this is usually the beginning of a larger brewery. Demand for the uniqueness provides the need for   supplies  from   other   breweries.  Barriers  to   entry  consist   of   government  laws  and regulations, supply availability, and customer loyalty.
  3. Bargaining Power of Suppliers: Limited supply, especially with specialized hops for the craft beers, prices can be increased.
  4. Bargaining Power of Buyers: Buyers may have price sensitivity. Many craft breweries are subject to limited distribution channels, making it harder to create a following as they’re not available in chain stores.
  5. Substitutes: Non-craft beer, wine, malt beverages. For people who don’t want to pay the“better beer” price, and people who don’t like the taste of largely produced beer.

2. The U.S. Beer market is one of the most complex industries. It has two product-segments: Lager and Ale, with lager being the overwhelmingly dominant segment. Historically,   the   industry   has   been   profitable  with more Profits   being allocated   among   the  mega breweries.

3. Controlling Supplier Costs:

Given the bargaining power of suppliers, the only to control them given their limited availability is through moral suasion or via legislative means limiting their powers.

Another way would be to get government to subsidise their cost of operations.

4. The effect of the general environment (such as demographic, socio-cultural etc)  on the brewery industry:

Economic factors affect the industry in determining price point and demand; Craft beer is more popular in already developed countries as those consumers can afford the higher price. Cultural factors are also a component; some cultures drink more beer as cultural experiences/ normality’s, while others are just beginning to develop a taste for the beverage. The climate in different places can also impact the type of beer consumed, warm weather lending to light beer, and tastes changing with every season, opening markets to a wider range of brews. Lastly, the industry is subject to political factors such as laws   and regulations about the  quantity, distribution, and packaging of  craft beers.

5. The importance of the craft brewery alliance is :

Craft   breweries   are   having   larger   growth   rates,   mega   breweries  are   growing   in   developing countries. Mega breweries still  have the largest profits,  but crafts are within  the top 10 for production volume. Craft breweries has high revenue due to higher price points.

Cheers!

aleksklad [387]

Answer:

A cold snap hits Florida, as a result crops in Florida get affected by this freezing temperature. This cold temperature in Florida also affects the crops of orange, so there is a reduction in the supply of oranges in the supermarkets. Thus, there is a shortage of oranges in the market.

Therefore, decrease in the supply of oranges will generally lead to higher price of oranges in the markets.

This rise in price of oranges is due to the cold snap which damages the orange crops.
