QS A large sporting goods retailer with multiple stores is attempting to predict the demand for the latest in a seemingly never-ending stream of high-tech basketball shoes, the Nike-Bok Turbo Air-Pump. It is estimated that 300 pairs will be sold per day in the retailer's stores if the new shoe is priced at $200. At a price of $175; 375 pairs are expected to be sold. a) If price is plotted on the horizontal axis, determine the slope-intercept form of the equation for demand. b) Predict the expected demand at a price of $225. At a price S160. c) Identify the p-intercept and interpret its meaning

I- Demand for a product is estimated to be Q=960 - 1.2P + 1.4Y +.003A where, Q and P are the quantity and price of the product respectively, Y is income, and A is the advertising expenditures. All the variables are in the natural logarithmic form and all the estimated coefficients are statistically significant. The average annual sale and the average price of the product are 60000 units and $8000 respectively. A. Price elasticity of demand is -------------, income elasticity of demand is ---------, advertising elasticity of demand is B. The optimum level of advertising spending for the firm is

A recent engineering was given the job of determining the best production rate for a new type of casting in a foundry. After experimenting with many combinations of hourly production rates and total production cost per hour, he summarized his findings in table below (column 2). The engineering then talked to the firm’s marketing specialist, who provided estimates of selling price per casting as a function of production output (see table 1 column 3). There are 8,760 hours in a year. What production rate would you recommend to maximize total profits per year? a) 100 ; b) 200 ; c) 300 ; d) 400 ; e) 500 show the computation how to solve it.
New ads have been proposed and cost the company $5000 to run in each time slot. If the extra sales from each new ad are determined be sales = 11000 - 30ad. How many ads should be run? (enter as an integer).

Daisy works for a candle manufacturer and has a great idea for a new product. She wants the candle to smell like french fries that have just been lifted from a deep fryer, as she knows this is a smell that many people find nostalgic. She designed the cover of the package to mirror a popular fast food chain's packaging. The legal team has advised that there is risk with this approach. The cost of the candles will be 10% more to manufacture than a more traditional candle, and the candles will have a retail prices of 20% more. Which of the following can be concluded from Daisy's story above? A) Daisy's new candle is the most expensive canlde that Daisy's company makes B) The french fry candle will sell more than lavender candles due to nostalgia C) The french fry candle will have a higher profit margin ([price - cost]/price) than a more traditional candle D) The legal team strongly believes Daisy will be sued because of the packaging design

(a) Find the total revenue when the level of production is: (i) 40; (ii) 41; (b) Find the exact revenue derived from the 41st item. (c) Find the approximate revenue derived from the 41st item. (d) What is the error if the derivative is used to approximate the marginal revenue?
