- JYour business has the capacity to produce up to 5 units/week. The table & graph below show average cost (AC) for different weekly production levels. Your objective is to maximize profit each week. Average Cost 22 20 AC 18 1 20 14 2 15 12 3 12 10 1 2 4 4 13 Quantity 15 Your product sells in the market for $21/unit, and you can sell as many units at that price as you can bring to market. You know from your economics training that deciding how much to produce should rely on marginal concepts like marginal cost (MC). So, based on the AC table above, create a table that shows the MC of each unit. (Assume that there are no fixed costs, so total costs are zero if Q=0.) Based on MC for each unit, determine the profit-maximizing quantity to produce and sell. BRIEFLY explain your answer. (Your answer needs to be based on MC and being able to sell each unit for $21.) AC ($/unit)A7 You are the manager of a bakery that produces and packages gourmet muffins, and you currently sell muffins in packages of 3. A consultant’s report has estimated the (inverse) demand of a typical consumer to: P = 3 − 0.5Q If your cost of producing bran muffins is C(Q) = Q: (a) What is the marginal cost of muffins? (b) Draw the demand and marginal cost on a diagram. (c) Determine the optimal number of muffins to sell in a single package. (d) What price should the firm charge for each park?4. A puppet maker calculates that the yearly cost of running his manufactory is $14,000. Additionally it costs him $60 to create each of his puppets. The price per puppet is determined by the following price-demand equation: p=500–2x a. Find the Cost equation for the total number of puppets produced and sold Find the Revenue equation for the total number of puppets produced and sold b. c. How many puppets does he need to make and sell to break even? d.

- Q.5 A firm is making two products A & B. Each unit of A incurs a cost of production to the tune of $150 and that of B incurs a cost of $200. Product A earns a profit of $15/unit and B gets $20/unit. The estimated monthly demand of both A & B is at maximum 500 units. Monthly production budget is set at $50,000.How many units of A & B should the firm make in order to maximize profit. Conduct sensitivity analysis and answer the following questions: 1. State the optimal solution. 2. What is the objective function value? 3. Find out the range of profit for A in the objective function for which the above solution remains optimal. 4. Which constraint/s is/are binding? 5. Interpret the shadow price for production budget.Price 2000 Multiple Choice MC P₂ ATC AVC g.opp. 9₂ Quantity Refer to the accompanying diagram.
