Answer:

A. A change in the price of good X.

Explanation:

A demand curve plots price against quantity demanded. A change in price causes a movement along the demand curve according to the law of demand which says an increase in price leads to a reduction in quantity demanded and a fall in price leads to a rise in quantity demanded.

If the price of a complementary good increases, the demand for good x would fall and the demand curve would shift leftwards.

If income increases, and good x is a normal good, the demand curve would shift to the right.

If a change in taste and preference is in favour for good x, more of good x would be demanded and the demand curve would shift to the right.

I hope my answer helps.

The question is incomplete. The complete question is :

A manufacturer believes that the cost function : $C(x) =\frac{5}{2}x^2+120 x+560$ approximates the dollar cost of producing x units of a product. The manu- facturer believes it cannot make a profit when the marginal cost goes beyond $210. What is the most units the manufacturer can produce and still make a profit? What is the total cost at this level of production?

Solution :

Given the cost function is :

$C(x) =\frac{5}{2}x^2+120 x+560$

Now, Marginal cost = $\frac{d}{dx}C(x)$

So, if the marginal cost = $ 210, then the manufacturer also makes a profit and if it goes beyond $ 210 than the manufacturer cannot make a profit.

Therefore, we have to equate : $\frac{d}{dx}C(x)= \$ 210$

$\frac{d}{dx}C(x)= \frac{5}{2}(2x)+120 = 210$

$5x + 120 = 210$

$5x=210-120$

$5x=90$

$x=45$

So when x = 45, then C(x) = $ 8042.5

Therefore, the manufacturer $\text{can make up}$ to 45 units and $\text{still makes a profit.}$ This leads to a total cost of $ 8042.5

Naddik [55]

Answer:

$926,073

Explanation:

Enterprise value=market capitalization+value of debt-cash

value of the firm=price-earnings ratio=11.8

earnings=net income

net income=profit margin*sales

net income=$697,000*6.8%=$47,396

11.8=market capitalization/$47,396

market capitalzation=11.8*$47,396=$559,272.80

enterprise value=$559,272.80+$408,000-$41,200=$ 926,072.80 (approx $926,073)
