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
Answer:
The correct answer is letter "B": The tendency of competition to cause individuals and firms to unintentionally promote the interests of society.
Explanation:
In his book "<em>An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations</em>" (1776), British economist Adam Smith (1723-1790) introduced the term "invisible hand" to refer that economic factors (buyers and sellers) naturally influence in the fluctuations of supply and demand without the need for the intervention of the government.
According to Smith, buyers and sellers interactions act as an "invisible hand" arranging proper levels of competition between businesses and promoting the best interest of societies.
Answer:
Bribery
Explanation:
they must decide whether to pay bribes or find alternative sources of supplies
Answer:
Explanation:
Last year Current year
Selling Price 10 10
Varaible Price 5 6
Contribution Margin 5 4
Break even is the point where total cost is equal to total revenue mean no profit and loss.
company earns the contribution margin after covering the variable cost, now only fix cost remains for break even.
Break Even using FIFO method : first In first out system
Fix Cost = 86000
contribution from opening units(6000*5) = 30000
Remaining Fix cost that should be Covered from
current year products = 56000
Units to be sold for break-even ( 56000/4) = 14000
so we have break even units 6000+14000 = 20000
Fix cost = -86000
Opening 6000*5 = 30000
Current 14000*4 = 56000
Profit = 0
Break Even using LIFO method : Last in first out
Fix Cost = 86000
Break even = Fix Cost / Contribution margin
Break even = 86000/4 =21500
current production is 24000 which is higher than break even units so we can cover the fix cost from current year production because company is using lifo method. we do not need opening units for the break even.
