Answer:

The correct answer is letter "D": the firm should change to a different line of business.

Explanation:

Economic profit is the difference between the revenue a firm earns from sales and the firm's total opportunity costs. It is important to distinguish between accounting profit and economic profit. Accounting profit is total revenue minus the explicit costs of producing goods or services. Economic profit includes the opportunity costs a company losses or gains by choosing a route to pursue revenue. If a firm has an economic profit of zero, it implies the company should start looking for alternative ways to generate income.

Anastasy [175]

Answer:

The marginal cost of producing the 25th speedboat is 18,575.

Explanation:

Note that the given Leisure Enterprise’s total cost (TC) of producing speedboats is correctly stated as follows:

TC = 10Q^3 - 4Q^2 + 25^Q + 500 …….………….. (1)

Where Q represents the quantity of speedboats produced.

To obtain the marginal cost (MC) of producing speedboats, equation (1) is differentiated with respect to Q as follows:

MC = dTC/dQ = 30Q^2 - 8Q + 25 ………………… (2)

Finding the marginal cost (MC) of producing the 25th speedboat implies that Q = 25.

Substituting Q = 25 into equation (2), we have:

MC = (30 * 25^2) - (8 * 25) + 25 = 18,575

Therefore, the marginal cost of producing the 25th speedboat is 18,575.

Explanation:

To obtain sales, the quantity sold is multiplied by the sale price in each of the regions.

Variable costs are multiplied by each of the quantities

Fixed costs are distributed according to what the company determined

From the difference between sales and variable costs we get the Contribution Margin. If the fixed costs are subtracted, the Segment Margin of each sector is obtained. Subtracting fixed costs that cannot be distributed, gives the Net Income.

The Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 800,000 was distributed between 40.000 units (produced units) not 35.000 (sold units)
