Determining Rent in a Market with Low-Cost and High-Cost Firms Suppose firms in a competitive market for house paints have the cost function C(q)=8+2q+2q?. The market is in a long-run equilibrium. (a) What is the price of house paint? (b) Suppose a subset of the firms in the market have developed technology that reduces their costs by 50% at any output level. That means these low-cost firms have the cost function C(q)=4+q+q?. How much additional profit do these low-cost firms earn from the technology? (c) Suppose over time, more and more firms adopt the lower-cost technology. What will be the price of paints in the long run?

A large company in the communication and publishing industry hs quantified the relationship between the price of one of its products and the demand for this product as Price = 160 -0.01 xDemand for an annual printing of this particular product. The foxed costs per year (ie. per printing) = $4T 000 and the variable cost per unit = $35. What is the maximum profit that can be achieved? What is the unit price at this point of optimal demand? Demand is not expected to be more than 7,000 units per year. The maximum profit that can be achieved is S. (Round to the nearest dolar.) The unit price at the point of optimal demand is S per unit (Round to the nearest cent)

For a particular jacket that is ordered for the Holidays, the Variable Cost = $150 and the jacket will be priced for sale at $250. It is estimated that the Average Demand will be 5000 units. If the jacket does not sell at the retail price during the Holidays time period, then it will be sold to an overstock discounter for $30. Given the relationship between Optimal Quantity and Average Demand, should the Optimal Quantity for this jacket be:
