Problem 01-03 (algo, with video solution) To earn extra money in the summer, you grow tomatoes and sell them at a local farmers' market for $0.15 per pound. By adding compost to your garden, you can increase your yield as shown in the accompanying table. Instructions: Determine the number of additional pounds of tomatoes you are able to grow by using each additional pound of compost. Then compute the additional revenue for marginal benefit) from each additional pound of compost.

Ike's Bikes is a major manufacturer of bicycles. Currently, the company produces bikes using only one factory. However, it is considering expanding production to two or even three factories. The following table shows the company's short-run average total cost (SRATC) each month for various levels of production if it uses one, two, or three factories. (Note: Q equals the total quantity of bikes produced by all factories.) Number of Factories Q = 100 1 2 3 78°F Sunny 440 620 800 F2 Q = 200 F3 280 380 480 O Average Total Cost (Dollars per bike) Q = 300 Q = 400 240 240 320 F4 320 240 240 Suppose Ike's Bikes is currently producing 100 bikes per month in its only factory.
