A company manufacturing laundry sinks has fixed costs of $100 per day but has totalcosts of $2,500 per day when producing 15 sinks. The company has a daily demand functionof q = 360 − p, where q is the number if laundry sinks demanded and p is te price ofa laundry sink. ) If production increases continuously, what is likely to be the average cost per sink? How many laundry sinks will the company need to produce in order to maximise it′s profits? What is the maximum profit?
This is a repeated question since you guys only answerone question at a time! Let's assume that a firm's total weekly costs are as follows: 1. Salaries = $2,600. 2. Supplies = $400. 3. Rent = $800.In addition, the owners have invested their own money into the business. This could have earned them interest of $150 per week if they had chosen to put it into a bank instead of investing it into their business. If the firm has weekly revenue of $4,000, what are the firm's accounting profit and economic profit? Show your work please.

he fixed costs for a certain item are $205 per week. The fixed cost is the y-intercept. The cost to produce each item is $4 per item.Using this information, what is the cost equation? Give your answer in slope-intercept form:y= The retailer intends to sell each item for $15/item.Using this information, what is the revenue equation? Revenue is the amount of money the retailer gets. Give your answer in slope-intercept form:y= f 21 items are made, what is the total cost to the retailer? What is the revenue from selling 21 items? Finally, what profit did the retailer make when they sell 21 items? Note: Profit = Revenue - Cost.

Only typed answer and don't use chat gpt and please answer correctly Suppose that you can sell as much of a product (in integer units) as you like at $61 per unit. Your marginal cost (MC) for producing the qth unit is given by: MC=9q This means that each unit costs more to produce than the previous one (e.g., the first unit costs 9*1, the second unit (by itself) costs 9*2, etc.). If fixed costs are $50, what is the optimal output level? Please specify your answer as an integer. Also, assume that a competitive firm has the total cost function: TC = 1q3 - 40q2 + 710q + 1700 Suppose the price of the firm's output (sold in integer units) is $550 per unit. Using tables (but not calculus) to find a solution, what is the total profit at the optimal output level? Please specify your answer as an integer.
PakPerfect Inc. estimates equation of its total costs of production as TC = 500 + 10Q + 5Q2 and market demand for its product as Qd = 105 – (1/2) P, where Q is quantity in units and P is price in Pak$. (i) Write the equations of the firm’s costs, as a function of Q (ii) Average Total Cost ATC (iii) Average Variable Cost AVC (iv) Average Fixed Cost AFC a. Given above costs can you determine what will be the firm’s production in Stage 1? What is the breakeven price and breakeven quantity for this firm? b. What is the shutdown price and quantity for this firm? c. Draw the firm’s costs in a graph as per your determination in (a). Label the breakeven and shutdown price and quantity using information in (b) and (c) above. d. Given the market price of Pak$ 50 (i) how many units should the firm produce? (ii) how many firms are competing in this market in short-run? (iii) How many firms will be in the industry in the long-run? e. How do you interpret the profit or loss condition of PakPerfect?…
