QUESTION 1
The ABC Company is planning an aggressive new pricing strategy that offers its product to wholesalers at $75 per unit. While the goal is to expand sales,
rather than necessarily maximize profits in the short term, it is critical that the company maintain a positive operating profit, since it cannot raise any more
debt in the immediate future. Your manager would like to get a better sense of how realistic it is to recover variable costs at a price of $75, given the cost
function C= 45Q +3Q2. How many units must the firm sell so that the average variable cost exactly equals the price of $757
