Answer:

b. marginal cost of those 50 records is $80,000.

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

The average cost of selling 1,200 records is

= $1,200,000 ÷ 1,200

= $1,000

Now

The average total cost of selling 1,250 records is

= $1,280,000 ÷ 1,250

= $1,024

Now for the extra 50 records, the marginal cost is

= $1,280,000 - $1,200,000

= $80,000

Hence, the correct option is b.

yKpoI14uk [10]

Since the cost of $20,000 has been incurred two years ago, the firm should check and see as to how many units of the product were produced in the two years. Did the firm produce enough items to break even the cost of acquisition. Additionally the business should also check the current market value of this two year old equipment. The business manager should weigh in the savings that is to be obtained from outsourcing along with the resale value of the old machine and then take a declension as to whether the company should go for outsourcing. Also, the business manager must examine whether the outsourcing can happen for the long run. This is because two years down the line, outsourcing may have increased the cost and again another process may look attractive. So a through cost benefit analysis should be made before taking a decision.

Leona [35]

Answer:

correct option is B. 40.5

Explanation:

given data

P = 78 - 15 Q

Q = Q1 + Q2

MC1 = 3Q1

MC2 = 2Q2

to find out

What price should be charged to maximize profits

solution

we get here first total revenue and marginal revenue that is

total revenue TR = P × Q   .......1

total revenue TR = 78Q - 15Q²

and

marginal revenue MR = \frac{change\ in\ TR}{change\ in\ Q}

marginal revenue MR = 78 - 30Q

now we get here

marginal revenue MR = MC1 = MC2

put here value

78 - 30Q1 - 30Q2 = 3 Q1 or 33 Q1 = 78 - 30Q2   ......................................a

78 - 30 Q1 - 30 Q2 = 2 Q2 or Q2 = 78 - 30Q1/32   ................................b

by equation a and b we get here

33 Q1 = 78 - 30 (78 - \frac{30Q1}{32} )

so here Q1 = 1 and

Q2 = 78 -  \frac{30*1}{32}

Q2 = 1.5

so that Q will be

Q = Q1 + Q2

Q = 1 + 1.5

Q = 2.5

now we get value of P that is

P = 78 - 15 Q

P = 78 - 15 (2.5)  

P = 40.5

so charged to maximize profits is 40.5

so correct option is B. 40.5
