As Sales Manager for Montevideo Productions, Inc., you are planning to review the prices you charge clients for television advertisement development. You currently charge each client an hourly development fee of $2,600. With this pricing structure, the demand, measured by the number of contracts Montevideo signs per month, is 24 contracts. This is down 3contracts from the figure last year, when your company charged only $2,300.
(a) Construct a linear demand equation giving the number of contracts q as a function of the hourly fee p Montevideo charges for development.
q(p) =
(b) On average, Montevideo bills for 50 hours of production time on each contract. Give a formula for the total revenue obtained by charging $p per hour.
R(p) =
(c) The costs to Montevideo Productions are estimated as follows:
Fixed costs:
$140,000 per month
Variable costs:
$70,000 per contract
Express Montevideo Productions' monthly cost as a function of the number q of…
The following equations are the demand and supply of a firm.
P = 50 -q ( demand equation)
P = 10+q( supply equation)
1. Calculate the equilibrium price and quantity algebraicall
2.Show the equilibrium quantities ( price and quantity) in a graph
1. The table to the right shows George’s, Thomas’s, Theodore’s, and Buyer Value
Abraham’s willingness to pay for a painting of a mountain in South Dakota. On the supply side, the seller has two paintings to sell.
George $100 Theodore $150 Thomas $250 Abraham $300
a. First, ignore the supply and draw the market demand curve for the paintings. Be specific and include the amounts on the axes that correspond to each point on the demand curve.
b. Given the demand and posted price (from above) each of the four consumers wishes to purchase one painting but only two are available. We call this situation a _____________. Each of the four has an equal chance of getting one. List the sample space of this random event and the probability of each outcome.
c. List all of the events from (b) that include Thomas receiving the painting. What is the probability that Thomas receives a painting?
d. What is the probability that the two people who want the paintings the most are the same two who are…

The following graph shows the domestic demand and domestic supply curves for soybeans in Honduras. Suppose Honduras's government currently does not allow international trade in soybeans. Use the black point (plus symbol) to indicate the equilibrium price of a ton of soybeans and the equilibrium quantity or soybeans in Honduras in the absence of international trade. Then, use the green triangie (triangie symbol) to shade the area representing consumer surplus in equilibrium.

- The nation of Cologne is “large,” but unable to affect world prices. It imports chocolate at the price of $20 per box. The demand curve is: D=700-10P. The supply curve is : S=200+5P. Determine the free trade equilibrium. Then calculate and graph the following effects on an import quota that limits imports to 50 boxes: The increase in the domestic price. The quota rents. The consumption distortion loss. The production distortion loss. If tariffs are already in place as a trade policy, why might a country choose to apply also nontariff barriers as another way to control the amount of trade that they conduct with other countries?

- The monthly demand for Williams Tchotchkes (q measured in 1000s of tchotchkes) depends on the price that they set for their tchotchkes (p measured in dollars), the average price of substitutes for their tchotchkes (p, also measured in dollars), and the average monthly disposable income in the market for tchotchkes (y measured in $1000s). The current prices are p = $10 and p₁ = $11, the current monthly demand for Williams Tchotchkes is 8000 tchotchkes and the current average monthly disposable income in the tchotchkes market is $3500. Furthermore, it is known that Əq Op p=10 Pg=11 y=3.5 = -0.31, Əq aps P=10 Pg=11 y=3.5 = 0.44 and Əq dy p=10 Pg=11 y=3.5 = 0.72.
