Your product's revenue per unit is $30, and product's cost per unit is $10. If the demand for next month is 200 units, and it costs $1000 one time to set up the machine, what is our profit (in dollars) for next month?
(a) At what output is the firm’s profit maximised and How much profit is made at this output? (b) Draw the total profit TΠ curve over the range of output where positive profit is made. (d) How much is total fixed cost, At what output is the price elasticity of demand equal to -1 and At what outputs does the firm break even?
The profit of a firm during the financial year is $1200 and cost incurred is $600. Find the markup.
Price Quantity Total Revenue Fixed Cost Variable Cost Profit (Dollars per tote) (Totes) (Dollars) (Dollars) (Dollars) (Dollars) 10.00 44,000 16.00 44,000 40.00 44,000 If the firm shuts down, it must incur its fixed costs (FC) in the short run. In this case, the firm's fixed cost is $44,000 per day. In other words, if it shuts down, the firm would suffer losses of $44,000 per day until its fixed costs end (such as the expiration of a building lease). This firm's shutdown price—that is, the price below which it is optimal for the firm to shut down—is per tote.
Lukanga Water has been providing water services in the Central Province for more than 20 years. Business analysts estimated the demand for water is P 40- 5Q, where Q is the number of clients served (in thousands) and P is the price charged (in millions of Kwacha). Lukanga Water total costs are determined as TC = 10 - 0.75Q. (a) How much is the profit maximizing level of output? (b) How much is Price at profit maximizing level of output? (c) Calculate the Profit level.

On the graph input tool, change the number found in the Quantity Demanded field to determine the prices that correspond to the production of 0, 6, 12, 15, 18, 24, and 30 units of output. Calculate the total revenue for each of these production levels. Then, on the following graph, use the green points (triangle symbol) to plot the results. Calculate the total revenue if the firm produces 6 versus 5 units. Then, calculate the marginal revenue of the sixth unit produced. The marginal revenue of the sixth unit produced is________. Calculate the total revenue if the firm produces 12 versus 11 units. Then, calculate the marginal revenue of the 12th unit produced. The marginal revenue of the 12th unit produced is_________.
Calculate the output when the average revenue is $500 and the total revenue is $3000
