Suppose a certain city has a monopoly cable-television company.  This company has total costs TC = Q2 + 10Q + 75.  (Hint: using calculus, this means MC = 2Q + 10 since MC is the derivative of TC with respect to output.)  The demand in the community is approximated by the equation Qd = 85 - P/2 (alternatively, you can write the demand equation as Qd = 85 – 0.5P).  Graphically depict the demand curve as well as the marginal cost (MC) curve. If the cable company is free to choose its own price Pm and quantity Qm, graphically depict the monopoly equilibrium price and quantity. Add any other curve(s) to your diagram that may be required to obtain this outcome. Compute and state the exact monopolist equilibrium price Pm and quantity Qm that you depicted graphically.

Which of the following is a major contributor to VM sprawl? Select one.   Question 5 options:   Virtual machines are too difficult and costly to shut down.   It is easy to create new virtual machines.   Too many internal policies exist to regulate virtual machines, and employees ignore them.   Multiple attacks are made on hypervisors.

A company has a monopoly on themed vacations. It has two kinds of clients. After extensive market research, the monopolist has found that Americans' willingness-to-pay for vacations is given by Q = 50 –- P. Meanwhile, Europeans' willingness-to-pay is given by Q = 10 – P/4. In this question, we consider a brief period of time in which only one American and one European enter the firm's offices.

Gerard.inc. is one of the leading producers of dairy exports. The company has 2 variants of superior milk, namely mocha and green tea. Based on historical data, the R&D team has found that the advantage per liter for each milk variant follows the following equation: πmocha = $45 - 0.9x and πgreen-tea = $65 - 1.7y Where x is the number of liters of mocha milk produced and y is the number of liters of green tea milk produced. It takes 2 hours to produce 1 liter of mocha milk and 5 hours to produce 1 liter of green tea milk. With the current number of workers, companies have a total of 40 hours of work in a day, and everything should be used to make both variants. The company wants to know the optimal amount of milk to be produced. a. How many liters of mocha milk and green tea should the company produce? b. What is the optimal objective function value based on your calculations? c. What is the lagrange multiplier value and what does it mean?

Give step by step answer de student question Time Left : 01:58:56 Student question   Assume that two companies (A and B) are duopolists who produce identical products. Demand for the products is given by the following linear demand function: P=400−QA−QB where QA and QB are the quantities sold by the respective firms and P is the selling price. Total cost functions for the two companies are TCA=1,500+110QA+QA2 TCB=1,200+40QB+2QB2 Assume that the firms form a cartel to act as a monopolist and maximize total industry profits (sum of Firm A and Firm B profits). In such a case, Company A will produce units and sell at $ . Similarly, Company B will produce units and sell at $ . At the optimum output levels, Company A earns total profits of $ and Company B earns total profits of $ . Therefore, the total industry profits are $ . At the optimum output levels, the marginal cost of Company A is $ and the marginal cost of Company B is $ . The following…

The Camera Shop sells two popular models of digital SLR cameras. The sales of these products are not independent; if the price of one increases, the sales of the other increases. In economics, these two camera models are called substitutable products. The store wishes to establish a pricing policy to maximize revenue from these products. A study of price and sales data shows the following relationships between the quantity sold (N) and price (P) of each model. NA = 185 - 0.7PA + 0.55P, Ng = 282 + 0.08PA - 0.7PB (a) Construct a model for the total revenue and implement it on a spreadsheet. What is the profit (in dollars) predicted by your model when the price of model A is Pa = $230 and the price of model B is Pa = $320. $ 93318 (b) Develop a two-way data table to estimate the optimal prices for each product in order to maximize the total revenue. Vary each price from $250 to $500 in increments of $10. PA = 270 PB = 390

Question: As the manager of Smith Construction, you need to make a decision on the number of homes to build in a new residential area where you are the only builder. Unfortunately, you must build the homes before you learn how strong demand is for homes in this large neighborhood. There is a 60 percent chance of low demand and a 40 percent chance of high demand. The corresponding (inverse) demand functions for these two scenarios are P = 300,000 − 400Q and P = 500,000 − 275Q, respectively. Your cost function is C(Q) = 140,000 + 240,000Q. How many new homes should you build, and what profits can you expect?
