Question 1
Suppose total benefits from producing Q outputs are given by TB = 12Q1/2, and total costs are given by TC = 1/12 Q. Suppose the firm chooses the optimal level of
output to maximize its net profits, and the firm receives the maximum net profits every year, starting in the first year, forever. If the interest rate is %5, what is the
present value of the profits over the firm's lifetime?
Question 2
Suppose the price elasticity of demand for a firm's specific product is given by E = 2*(0.5-57/Q). What quantity maximizes the firm's total revenue?
Question 3
Suppose the short-term average total cost is given by AVC = 1,715+4Q. What is the marginal cost at Q=37?
