Answer:

consumer surplus = $3.5

producer surplus = $2

Explanation:

Consumer surplus is the difference between the willingness to pay of a consumer and the price of the good.

Consumer surplus = willingness to pay – price of the good

Jeff's consumer surplus = $7 - $6 = $1

Samir's  consumer surplus = $8.50 - $6 = $2.50

total consumer surplus = $1 + $2.50 = $3.50

Producer surplus is the difference between the price of a good and the least price the seller is willing to sell the product

Producer surplus = price – least price the seller is willing to accept

Manufacturer 1's producer surplus = $6 - $4.5 = $1.50

Manufacturer 2's producer surplus = $6 - $5.50 = $0.50

total producer surplus = $1.50 + 0.50 = $2

Answer:

p = 59.11 dollars

Explanation:

Given

Price:     p(x) = 8eˣ      (0 ≤ x ≤ 2)

Revenue;  R = x*p = 8xeˣ

p = ?  when R be at maximum

We can apply

dR/dx = d(x*p)/dx = 0

⇒  d(8xeˣ)/dx = 8*(1*eˣ + x*eˣ) = 0

⇒  eˣ*(1 + x) = 0    ⇒    x = - 1

as x = - 1 ∉ [0, 2]

then, we have

p(0) = 8e⁰ = 8

R = 0*8 = 0

If x = 1

p(1) = 8e¹ ≈ 21.74

R = 1*21.74 = 21.74

If x = 2

p(2) = 8e² ≈ 59.11

R = 2*59.11 = 118.22

Implies that, R(x) is maximum at x = 2.

   

Thus, the price that maximize the revenue of the company is 59.11 dollars.
