Assume a monopolist with​ downward-sloping demand and marginal revenue​ (MR) curves. The monopolist operates with standard margi

nal cost​ (MC) and average total cost​ (ATC) curves. How does a monopolist determine the​ profit-maximizing output level and the corresponding​ profit-maximizing price?

Answer:

The monopolist's profit maximizing level of output and corresponding profit-maximizing price is found by equating its marginal revenue with its marginal cost, which is the same profit maximizing condition that a perfectly competitive firm utilizes in determining its equilibrium level of output. Therefore, as the price falls, the market's demand for output increases.

saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

TFC : Horizontal Line parallel to X axis

TVC : Upward sloping inverse S shape curve from origin

TC : Upward sloping increase S shape curve, with Y axis intercept = TFC

Explanation:

Total Fixed cost [TFC] is the total production expenditure, done on fixed factors of production (Eg - on machine, building etc). It is incurred even at zero level of output, stays same (constant) irrespective of output level. So, it's curve is a  constant horizontal line.

Total Variable Cost [TVC] is the total production expenditure, done on variable factors of production (Eg - on raw material). It is zero at zero level of output,  directly related to level of output thereafter. It first increases at a decreasing rate, then increases at an increasing rate. So, it's curve is inverse S upward sloping curve from origin.

Total Cost [TC] is the total cost incurred on all factors of production (fixed & variable). It is sum of TVC & TFC. As TFC is constant at all levels of output, TC changes due to change in TVC. So, TC is also directly related to output level, first increases at increasing rate & then at decreasing rate. Hence, it is also a inverse S upward sloping curve. But, it also includes constant TFC. So, the curve has intercept on Y axis = TFC (it doesn't start from origin).

Financial statement data for years ending December 31, 2019 and 2018, for Edison Company follow: 2019 2018 Sales $513,500 $480,0
madam [21]

Answer:

The answer is

For 2018 - 1.5

For 2019 - 1.3

Explanation:

Asset turnover ratio=Net sales/average total assets

For 2018:

Sales - $480,000

Beginning asset - 360,000

Ending asset -360,000

Average total asset:

($280,000 + $360,000)/2

=$320,000

Therefore, asset turnover for 2018 is:

$480,000/$320,000

=1.5

For 2019:

Sales - $513,500

Beginning asset - $360,000

Ending asset - $430,000

Average total asset:

($360,000 + $430,000)/2

=$395,000

Therefore, asset turnover for 2019 is:

$513,500/$395,000

=1.3

1. Make the following statement True by filling in the blank from the choices below: Critical infrastructure owners and operator
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

The answer is "Develop and implement security and resilience programs for the critical infrastructure under their control, while taking into consideration the public good as well".

Explanation:

In the past, industrial control  systems were generally not connected to IT networks and did not contain complex computing  capabilities; therefore, they could be adequately protected using physical security measures like locks  and fences. However, as OT has become more integrated with IT, such physical measures are becoming  less adequate in securing the underlying critical assets.

When manufacturers such as pampered chef sell directly to consumers, they perform both production and retailing activities?

Manufacturer is a type of business that transform raw materials into a sellable goods, so technically they can be considered as a producer in the market.
Retailers is someone that sell the goods that produced by the manufacturers to the consumers.

So, in this case, they did perform both production and retailing activities
