Answer:
The correct answer is letter "C": marginal revenue equals marginal cost.
Explanation:
The profit-maximizing level of output for every type of firm is reached when the marginal revenue of production equals the marginal cost meaning that the additional cost of selling one more unit equals the cost of producing one more unit.
Marginal costs vary according to changes in production. Because of that, managers must identify when those events happen to calculate the profit margin (percentage sales that are converted into profits) of the firm to avoid losses.
Answer: A Contract was formed on February 5th
Explanation:
The contract was formed the very day that Bob mailed Ann his acceptance which was on the 5th of February.
Ann attempted to revoke the acceptance too late as she did it a day after he had emailed his acceptance even though she only received it on the 7th.
The date she received the acceptance is of no consequence because this falls under the Posting Rule. This rule in Common Law countries essentially states an agreement is made as soon as the letter is posted even if it never gets to it's destination.
Answer: Decentralized
Explanation: In a decentralized organisation, the seniors in the organisation transfers the authority and responsibility to their subordinates.
This is done by the seniors with the objective of effective running of operations within. The employees in such organisations usually remain more motivated than others.
In the given case, Infososft is encouraging their employees to take their own decisions while dealing with customers. Hence the transfer of authority for decision making is evident.
From the above we can conclude that the correct option is A.
Answer: A. equal to marginal cost where it intersects the demand curve
Explanation:
In a pure competition, the market is efficient because it balances demand and supply and gives an equilibrium price that takes both of them into account.
In this market, the price is equal to the marginal revenue of a firm and the profit maximizing level of production is where the marginal revenue intersects the marginal cost.
The efficient level is therefore where price equals marginal cost. The same goes for a natural monopoly. If economic efficiency is to be achieved, the natural monopoly's price must equal the marginal cost at the equilibrium price.
Answer:
A) 3% decrease in the quantity demanded of pineapple.
Explanation:
We know that the demand curve is negative, which means that as price of a product increases, its demand will decrease.
In unitary elasticity(1) the change in demand means that the change in quantity demanded will be the same. A 0.75 elasticity will thus mean that the quantity demanded will change by a factor of 0.75 as compared to the change in price.
Therefore when the price of pineapple increases by 4%, the quantity demanded will decrease by 4 * 0.75 = 3%
