A provincial park issues three different types of passes to its customers (bronze, silver, and gold tickets). Each pass type allows visitors to spend different times in the park and have access to different park amenities. The profit margins of the three pass types are $1.00, $3.50, and $12.00 per pass, respectively. The administrative working units required for the three pass types are estimated to be 1, 1, and 4 units, respectively. The monthly administrative working units available are 25000 units. In a typical summer month, the number of visitors was estimated to be 10,000 visitors. Accordingly, the park management decided to issue a total of 10,000 tickets for that month. Based on preliminary market research, the park management also decided to make at least 1500 bronze and 1500 silver passes available for customers. Based on this information, what is the optimal number of each pass type that the park should issue to maximize its profit? Use the simplex method to develop your…
Assume an electricity generator can produce electricity from two different production technologies, a dirty technology and a clean technology. The quantity of electricity produced from the dirty technology is Qd in megawatt hours (MWh) and the amount from the clean technology is Qc. The dirty technology produces carbon emissions at a constant rate of d tons per MWh of electricity generation. The clean technology produces carbon emissions at a constant rate of c tons per MWh, where Bc < Bd. The cost functions for the two generation technologies are C(Qd) and C(Qc). The market price of electricity is P. Under these assumptions, the firm’s profit function is: Profit = PQd + PQc - C(Qd) - C(Qc). 1.) Take the partial derivative of profit with respect to each output (Qd and Qc) and set each equal to zero to find the profit maximizing (“first-order”) conditions for each type of electricity. Denote marginal costs of each type of electricity as MCd and MCc. Write down and interpret…
Given the following cost function:TC = 1500 + 15Q – 6Q2 + Q3i. Determine the total fixed cost for producing 1000 units of output and 500 units of output.ii. What is AFC at:a) 1000 units of outputb) 500 units of outputiii. Determine TVC, AVC, MC and AC at 50 units of output.
Demand for a company’s product is given by the following equation: Q=1000-0.5P. You are also given that its total cost function TC=100+1000Q. Compute the profit maximizing price and quantity B. A firm earns an accounting profit of K150, 000 per year in project A. The firm could earn K150, 000 and K120, 000 in investments B and C, respectively. How much economic profit is the firm earning assuming the three projects are mutually exclusive?
