A manufacturer of a new patented product has found that she can sell 70 units a week direct to the customer if the price is $78. In error, the price was advertised as $138, and, as a result only 40 units were sold in a week. The manufacturer's fixed costs of production are $50 a week and variable costs of $18 per unit. You are required to: a. Show the equation of the demand function linking price(P) to quantity demand(X), assuming it to be a straight line, is P+2X=218 b. Find where the manufacturer breaks even c. Find the quantity that maximizes profit d. Recommend a unit price which would maximize profit e. Determine the maximum profit f. Find the equation of new demand function, assuming a sudden change in trading conditions resulting a 20% reduction in demand at all price levels

Suppose that the Travnikar Corporation manufactures widgets. Analysts that work for the company have found a function C(x) which reports the cost to produce x widgets and a function R(x) which reports the total revenue from selling x widgets. Currently, the company is producing 500 widgets, but the analysts find that R'(500)=85 and C'(500)=79. In order to maximize profits, should the analysts recommend increasing or decreasing production?
A manufacturer of a new patented product has found that he can sell 70 units a week to the customer if the price is $48. In error, the price was recently advertised at $78 and as a result, only 40 units were sold in a week. The manufacturers fixed costs of production are $1,710 a week and variable costs are $9 per unit. You are required to: a. Show the equation of the demand function linking price (P) to quantity demanded (X) assuming it to be a straight line is P = 118-x
There is a firm making custom stuffed animals. The demand function for custom stuffed animals is: P = 1000 - 20Q The cost depends on how much of each of their inputs they use. It takes 3 inputs to make a stuffed animal: cotton, oil, and chorizo. The amount required, input prices, and restrictions are below: It takes 1 pound of cotton to make a stuffed animal. Cotton costs $20 per pound. They can buy up to 23 pounds of cotton. It takes 2 barrels of oil to make a stuffed animal. Oil costs $10 per barrel. They can buy up to 44 barrels of oil. It takes 3 chorizo burritos to make a stuffed animal. Burritos cost $5 per burrito. They can buy up to 100 burritos. Set this up in Solver to help them maximize profit by choosing the best quantity of stuffed animals to produce, subject to the constraints of the maximum amount of cotton/oil/burritos they can buy. In the space below, tell the profit that the firm will earn when they maximize its profit. PLEASE SHOW EXCEL WALKTHROUGH USING SOLVER.…
