Answer:

a. Raw material discounts

b. Reduction of unit cost

c. Specialists

d. Better production methods

Explanation:

b. A fall out from the above is reduction of unit cost or average cost, when discount is received it reduces the total cost of material and by implication the unit cost.

kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

A) R(x) = 120x - 0.5x^2

B) P(x) = - 0.75x^2 + 120x - 2500

C) 80

D) 2300

E) 80

Explanation:

Given the following :

Price of suit 'x' :

p = 120 - 0.5x

Cost of producing 'x' suits :

C(x)=2500 + 0.25 x^2

A) calculate total revenue 'R(x)'

Total Revenue = price × total quantity sold, If total quantity sold = 'x'

R(x) = (120 - 0.5x) * x

R(x) = 120x - 0.5x^2

B) Total profit, 'p(x)'

Profit = Total revenue - Cost of production

P(x) = R(x) - C(x)

P(x) = (120x - 0.5x^2) - (2500 + 0.25x^2)

P(x) = 120x - 0.5x^2 - 2500 - 0.25x^2

P(x) = - 0.5x^2 - 0.25x^2 + 120x - 2500

P(x) = - 0.75x^2 + 120x - 2500

C) To maximize profit

Find the marginal profit 'p' (x)'

First derivative of p(x)

d/dx (p(x)) = - 2(0.75)x + 120

P'(x) = - 1.5x + 120

-1.5x + 120 = 0

-1.5x = - 120

x = 120 / 1.5

x = 80

D) maximum profit

P(x) = - 0.75x^2 + 120x - 2500

P(80) = - 0.75(80)^2 + 120(80) - 2500

= -0.75(6400) + 9600 - 2500

= -4800 + 9600 - 2500

= 2300

E) price per suit in other to maximize profit

P = 120 - 0.5x

P = 120 - 0.5(80)

P = 120 - 40

P = $80
