Answer:

a)

P 175

Q = 250

Profit6,250

b)

P 325

Q = 875

Profit 153,125

c)

Q = 1200

P = 260

Profit = 287,000

Explanation:

It maximize profit at MR = MC

MR = 200 - 0.2Q

MC = 150

150 = 200-0.2Q

Q = 50/0.2 = Q = 250

Price:

250 = 2000 - 10P

P = 1750/10 = 175

<u></u>

<u>Profit: revenue - cost</u>

$175 x 250 session - $150 per session = 6,250

<em>At new functions:</em>

150 = 500-0.4Q

Q = 350 / 0.4 = 875

Price:

875 = 2,500 - 5P

P = (2500-875)/5= 325

<u>Profit</u>

(325 - 150) * 875 = 153,125

<u>If cost changes:</u>

cost: 1000 + 20Q

marginal cost: 20

20 = 500 - 0.4Q

Q = 480 / 0.4 = 1,200

Price:

1,200 = 2500 - 5P

P = 1300/5 = 260

<u>Profit</u>

(260 - 20)Q - 1,000 = 287,000

Assume your required internal rate of return on similar investments is 11 percent. What is the net present value of this investm
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

Hello some parts of your question is missing attached below are the missing parts

You are considering the purchase of a small income-producing property for $150000 that is expected to produce the following net cash flows

End of year           cash flow

1                                 $50000

2                                $50000

3                                $50000

4                                $50000

Answer : a) $5122.28  (b)  12.59%  (c) You should make the investment

Explanation:

Internal rate of return = 11 %

initial cash flows = $150000

period = 4 years

Find the NPV (net present value )( using present value tables)

= preset value of cash flows - initial cash flows

= ∑ present cash flows for 4 years - $150000

= $155122.28 - $150000 = $5122.28

The going-in internal rate of return on investment

N (number of years ) = 4

pv  ( present value ) = $150000

PMT = -$50000

Fv ( future value ) = 0

IRR = 12.59% ( making use of the cash flow list in our financial calculator )
