Most raisins in the U.S. are produced in California. Raisins come from grapes, in a fairly simple process: grapes grow on vines; at harvest time, workers cut the bunches of grapes down; they spread them out in the sun for a couple of weeks until the grapes shrivel up and become raisins; the raisins are then packed into boxes and sold to consumers.
But here’s the thing: California raisin growers have a cartel. And it is a legal cartel, based on a law passed in 1937 during the Great Depression. That law says that raisin growers are exempt from U.S. anti-trust law.
So here is what the raisin growers do. They harvest their raisins. Then they have a big meeting of all the growers (called the Raisin Administrative Committee). At this meeting they decide how much of their raisin crop they are actually going to sell.

This would reduce the pollution in the lake to levels safe for recreation, and the water park would no longer be affected. If the fish processor uses the recycling method, then the fish processor's economic profit is $1,000 per week, and the water park's economic profit is $2,600 per week. If the fish processor does not use the recycling method, then the fish processor's economic profit is $1,700 per week, and the water park's economic profit is $1,500 per week. These figures are summarized in the following table. Complete the following table by computing the total profit (the fish processor's economic profit and the water park's economic profit combined) with and without recycling.
