Answer:

c. 6

Explanation:

The maximun profit is determined by the point where the Marginal Revenue (MR) is equal to the Marginas Cost (MC).

Solving for person of type 2 and considering Z=1.

The marginal cost equation:

MC = 2 + 4z

MC = 2 + 4(1)

MC = 6

The demand equation:

P2 = 24 - 2Q2 + 6z

P2= 24 - 2Q2 + 6

P2= 30 - 2Q2

To calculate the Marginal Revenue, we calculate, at first, the total profit:

Total profit=P*Q2

TP=(30-2Q2)*Q2

TP=30Q2 - 2Q2^2

Taking the derivative of the total profit, we obtain the Marginal Revenue

MR = 30 - 4Q2

Finally, set the MR and MC, and solve for Q2

30 - 4Q2 = 6

24 = 4Q2

<h2>Q2 = 6</h2>

Managers are well-advised to consider whether the company can operate more profitable by selling some/all of its plant capacity
trasher [3.6K]
The answer is when global demand for exclusive and private-label footwear is so far under global plant volume that it will be intolerable for most all companies to cost-effectively operate their plants at full volume for many years to come. If the prediction shows that global demand is far under global volume, then it isn't conceivable for everyone to sell everything. In this circumstance the most liquid and solvent company will appear ahead, maybe a company could hold onto volume and ferociously hold onto market share.

klasskru [66]
