You are CEO of Eastco, and you recently paid $58,000 or about 2x revenue (well under industry average) to purchase Westco, which

makes a product nearly identical to yours. This move will allow you to operate in both regions (East and West) of the country.
If you combine the markets, the total Fixed Cost would be $11,000 per month, and your larger purchase size will allow you to advantageous terms for your raw materials, meaning VC will be $4 per unit.
Demand and MR in the combined market is as follows: Qd = 600 - 6P
MR = 100 - 0.333Q
a) Compute your profit in the combined market.
Additional analysis shows that demand and fixed costs are different in the 2 regions.
The West has the following demand and MR:
Qd = 300 - 4P
MR = 75 - 0.5Q
Fixed costs associated with operating in the West are $5000/month. While the East is a less price sensitive market:
Qd = 300 - 2P
MR = 150 - Q
Fixed costs associated with operating in the East are $6000/month.
The area manager from the East suggests you use a strategy that charges each market a separate price. If you operate in separate markets, the VC associated with each unit is $5.
b) Calculate your profits using this strategy. What is this strategy called?
c) What strategy do you suggest in the Long Run?

Llana [10]

Answer:

My Answer: Why did you choose to work here? How do you feel about the organization here? What are you likes about the company? Why are working in the same organization? Would you recommend the organization for future employees?

Explanation:

Plato's Answer: I interviewed my aunt, who works at Triple J Productions. She has been working there for 20 years. When she started out, the company offered voluntary monthly trainings for employees looking to advance. The company had a family picnic every summer for employees and their families. The company was very honest, cared about its employees, customers, etc. Three years ago, the CEO passed away. His son took over the company. Now, they do not have any company picnics. Training has stopped and the company often outsources jobs to employees who will work for low salaries. She is now quite unhappy at the company, but feels that she has invested too much time in it to go somewhere else. Ten years ago, she would have said it is a great place to work. Today, she feels that the company's common practices are sneaky and underhanded and their main motivation is money.

I hope it helps!
