If the Market Equilibrium Wage Rate is $105.00 and FC = $1500.00: A. The firm Shuts Down and hires no workers and loses $1500.00
1 answer:
Answer: B. The firm hires 45 workers and earns a $1200.00 Economic Profit
Explanation:
According to the table, when the Market Equilibrium Wage Rate is $105, the number of workers to hire would be 45 and the revenue would be $7,425.
If 45 workers are hired, they would cost:
= 45 * 105 per worker
= $4,725
Added to the fixed cost, the total cost would be:
= 4,725 + 1,500
= $6,225
The profit would be:
= Revenue - cost
= 7,425 - 6,225
= $1,200
