Firm A produces 1,000 units of output at a cost of $16.84 each. Firm A sells 600 units to Firm B for a price of $24.53 each. They sell the remaining units to consumers for a price of $25.21 each. Firm B produces 100 units of output using the 600 units that it purchased from Firm A. The total cost of producing the 100 units was $77 per unit. Firm B sold 90 units to consumers for $101 each and did not sell the remaining units this year. What is the value of consumption spending? Enter a number rounded to two decimal places.

A company produces and sells a consumer product and is able to control the demand for the product by varying the selling price. The approximate relationship between price and demand is p= 200-0.05D where p is the price per unit in dollars and D is the demand per month. The company is seeking to maximize its profit. The fixed cost is $15000 per month and the variable cost is $50 per unit. a. What is the number of units that should be produced and sold each month to maximize profit? b. What is the domain of profitable demand during a month? Show your spreadsheet.
A manager must decide how many machines of a certain type to purchase. Each machine can process 100 customers per day. One machine will result in a fixed cost of $2,200 per day, while two machines will result in a fixed cost of $3,700 per day. Variable costs will be $20 per customer, and revenue will be $45 per customer. a. Determine the break-even point for each range. (Round your answers to the next whole number.) One machine Two machines b. If estimated demand is 90 to 120 customers per day, how many machines should be purchased?

A company has established that the relationship between the sales price for one of its products and the quantity sold per month is approximately p= 75 -0.10 (D is the demand or quantity sold per month and p is the price in doilars). The fbxed cost is $1.000 per month and the variable cost is $30 per unit produced. a. What is the maximum profit per month for this product? b. What is the range of profitable demand during a month? a. The maximum profit per month for this product is S (Round to the nearest dollar.) b. The range of profitable demand during a month is from units to units. (Round up the lower limit and down the upper limit to the nearest whole number.)
In the market for foam fire retardant there is only one firm. The demand func-tion for the product is Q = 15,000 – 10P where Q is the annual sales quantity in tons and P is the price per ton. The firm’s total cost function (in dollars) is C = 1,400,000 + 300Q + 0.05Q2.a) How much foam fire retardant should this firm produce and sell in order to maximize its profit? What price should it charge?b) Compute the firm’s total profit.c) Suppose now that the firm faces a 20% increase in variable costs. Determine what impact this will have on the firm’s optimal choice.

(a) How would one estimate the full cost to an airline if one of its planes is held over for 24 hours in an airport for repair? (b) A company has spent $10 million to develop a product for market. During the product’s first two years, the company’s profit was $6 million. In recent years, the market was flooded by rival products and now the company is reassessing its product. If it abandons the product, it can recover $2 million of its original investment by selling its production facility. If it continues to produce the product, its estimated revenues for successive two-year periods will be $5 million and $3 million and its costs will be $4 million and $2.5 million. (After four years the plant will have zero resale value.) What would be the company’s best course of action? (c) Two decades ago, the global demand and supply curves for copper were: Qd = 15-10P and Qs = -3 + 14P, where Q is measured in millions of metric tons per year.
