- TOTAL COST AND REVENUE (Dollars) -25 Suppose Lorenzo runs a small business that manufactures teddy bears. Assume that the market for teddy bears is a price-taker market, and the market price is $10 per teddy bear. The following graph shows Lorenzo's total cost curve. Use the blue points (circle symbol) to plot total revenue, and the green points (triangle symbol) to plot profit for the first seven teddy bears that Lorenzo produces, including zero teddy bears. 125 Total Cost 100 Total Revenue 75 -50 1 2 5 6 QUANTITY (Teddy bears) Profit Calculate Lorenzo's marginal revenue and marginal cost for the first seven teddy bears he produces, and plot them on the following graph. Use the blue points (circle symbol) to plot marginal revenue and the orange points (square symbol) to plot marginal cost. ?

When he does this, the marginal…For each price in the following table, calculate the firm's optimal quantity of units to produce, and determine the profit or loss if it produces at that quantity, using the data from the graph to identify its total variable cost. Assume that if the firm is indifferent between producing and shutting down, it will produce. (Hint: You can select the purple points [diamond symbols] on the graph to see precise information on average variable cost.)

In this case, the firm's fixed cost is $1,600,000 per day. In other words, if it shuts down, the firm would suffer losses of $1,600,000 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…Graphically show the relationship between the total fixed cost, the total variable cost, and the total cost. Draw a total cost curve and total revenue curve so that at some outputs that the firm takes losses, outputs where the firm makes unnecessary profits, and where the firm makes only necessary profits. Then, pick a point where the firm is taking losses and show on the graph, the firm’s total losses. Do the same for a point (an output level) where the firm may be making unnecessary profits.
- Suppose the firm achieves total revenue of $1,000 by selling 150 units while facing total costs of $900. If the firm produces and sells 151 units, its total revenue is $1,005, and its total costs are $950. Should the firm produce and sell the extra unit? Group of answer choices yes, since marginal profit is positive yes, since profits are positive no, since marginal profit is negative no, since marginal profit is positive You have recently learned that the company where you work is being sold for $1,000,000. The company's income statement indicates next year's profits of $30,000, which have yet to be paid out as dividends. Assuming the company will remain a "going concern" indefinitely and the interest rate will remain constant at 7%, at what (constant) rate does the owner believe that profits will grow? (Hint: the price the owner was willing to pay is the present value of the firm's future cash flows) Group of answer choices 6% 5% 4% 4.5%The graph below shows the marginal cost (MC), average variable cost (AVC), and average total cost (ATC) curves for a firm in a competitive market. These curves imply a short-run supply curve that has two distinct parts. One part, not shown, lies along the vertical axis (quantity-0); this represents a condition of production shutdown. Where is the other part? Use the straight-line tool to drawit.
