Answer:
The firm should increase output and reduce price
Explanation:
For a monopolist, there can be one of the following three scenarios at a time point in time:
Scenario one, MR = MC: For a monopolist, profit is maximized at the point where marginal revenue (MR) is equal to to marginal cost (MC), i.e. where MR = MC. 
Scenario two, MR < MC: But when the MR < MC, it indicates that the monopolist is currently producing a higher quantity of output and it is not maximizing profit. In order to maximize profit, the monopolist has to reduce output until MR = MC.
Scenario three , MR > MC: But when the MR > MC, it indicates that the monopolist is currently producing a lower quantity of output and it is not maximizing profit. In order to maximize profit, the monopolist has to increase output until MR = MC. Also, the monopolist has to reduce price in order to sell the increased quantity of output.
From the question, the monopolist falls into scenerio three as MR > MC, i.e. $45 > $35. Therefore, the monopolist should increase output until MR = MC and reduce price in order to maximize profit.
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
c. $3,150
Explanation:
The computation of the gross income is shown below:
= Interest on savings accounts + Interest on a State bond + Interest portion of proceeds of a 5% bank certificate of deposit + Dividends on USG common stock
= $2,000 + $600 + $250 + $300
= $3,150
We do not consider the school bonds as it would not be included in the gross income. So, we ignored it 
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
D. The breakeven point decreases.
Explanation:
Breakeven point of a business is defined as the point where it's total cost and total revenues are equal, at this point there is no gain or loss. Hen revenue is above this point profit is made, and when revenue is below this point there is loss.
The formula for break-even is
Breakeven point= Total fixed cost/(Sales price per unit- Variable cost per unit)
Since sales price and variable cost is constant, let's say
(Sales price per unit- Variable cost per unit)= constant (k)
So when we cross-multiply in the formula
Breakeven* k= Total fixed cost
It shows that Breakeven point is directly proportional to Total fixed cost.
So a reduction in Total fixed cost will result in a reduction in Breakeven point.

Answer:
Operate mine 1 four 4 days and mine 2 during 6 days to obtain minimum cost for the desired output of 850 gold and 18,000 silver
Explanation:
We generate the equation system on excel:
(50g + 3000s) Q_1 --> output generated on Mine 1
(75g + 1,000s) Q_2 --> output generated on Mine 2
12,000 Q1 + 17,000 Q2 = cost of the mines
we do solver to minimize the days of each mine considering a desired output of 18,000 silver and 650 gold:
and get the following:
M1  4 days  output: (50g + 3000s) 4 = 200 g    12,000s
M2 6 days  output: (75g + 1,000s) 6 =  450g      6,000s
Cost: 12,000 x 4 + 17,000 x 6 = 150,000
