Answer: Q = 5

Explanation:

In a competitive market, the profit maximising quantity is the quantity at which Marginal Cost is equal to Marginal revenue.

In a competitive market, price is equal to marginal revenue so marginal revenue is $50.

Marginal cost would be the differential of the cost function;

= 40 + 5Q²

= (2 * 5) * Q

= 10Q

10Q = 50

Q = 50/10

Q = 5

Explanation:

Obviously, the original income statement is missing, so I looked for a similar question:

sales revenue                                 $16,500

COGS                                              <u>($9,300)</u>

Gross profit                                      $7,200

Operating exp.:

  • Administrative $950
  • Depreciation $1,300
  • Shipping $412.50             <u>($2,662.50)</u>

Net income                                 $4,537.50

net income increased by $4,537.50 - $3,000 = $1,537.50
