Q2.The management of an ‘Electronic Goods’ manufacturing company asked you to give an advice about changing its current production plan, given the following information:- Annual production plan of computers is 4200 computers.- Total cost of production is OMR 824000.- Fixed cost is OMR 320000.- Revenue function: R = 460.2Q – 0.05Q2 1-Use the above information to formulate the price function and the total cost function, and determine the following: 1) Profit-maximizing quantity.2) Profit-maximizing price.3) Maximum profit value.4) Revenue-maximizing quantity. 2-Should the company change its current annual production plan of computers in order to maximize its profit?
Objective: Find optimal L, Q, and profits for every change in market conditions. •Case 1: Economists calculated that Amazon’s productivity function in 2000 was: Q=40K^0.55 L^0.45 . Also, average price per unit (mostly books) = $22, wage per unit = $8, and at that time, Amazon had one distribution center (K) at $10,000 (including renting rate, inventory costs, etc.) Case 2: In 2005, Amazon expanded its distribution centers to 5. Case 3: In 2012, Amazon bought robot maker Kiva System, changing Amazon’s productivity function to: Q=80K^0.55 L^0.45 , keeping the rest of the information as in Case 2. Case 4: In 2019, Amazon announced hourly wage of $15 per unit. Compare optimal number of workers, Q, and profits under these corporate and market changes (Table). Case1: L1 = Q1 = Profits1 = Case2: L2 = Q2 = Profits2 = Case3: L3 = Q3 = Profits3 = Case4: L4 = Q4 = Profits4 =
A5 Course: Microeconomics - Cost and Production A firm produces shoes using L (labor) and machines (K). Its production function is Q = K1/3 L2/3. Assuming K fixed at 8, price of capital (r) is $4 and wage(w) is $2, find and plot the short-run cost curves. Also show that CMeT (AMC) reaches its value at the level of production where it equals Marginal Cost (MC). And show that CMeT (AMC) is ALWAYS decreasing at the beginning due to fixed cost. Demonstrations should use the necessary calculations.
Multiple choice - microeconomics 45) Refer to Figure 13-2. What does the changing slope of the total-cost curve reflect? A. decreasing marginal cost B. decreasing marginal product C. decreasing average variable cost D. decreasing average total cost 44) What distinguishes short-run cost analysis from long-run cost analysis for a profit-maximizing firm? A. In the short run the size of the factory is fixed B. In the short run there are no fixed costs C. In the short run the number of workers used to produce the firm’s product is fixed. D. In the short run output is not variable.
: A firm sells its product in two… QuestionAsked Feb 17, 2019104 views A firm sells its product in two different markets. The inverse demand in market A is PA = 72 - 5QA and in market B, it is PB = 60 - 3QB. It has fixed costs of 72. Each unit it produces costs 12, i.e., marginal cost equals 12. To maximize profits, what quantities of output will be sold in each market and what will total profits be?

Which of the following is considered as an important type of business processes ? Select one : O Based on work done across organizations O B Occurs solely within organizations O Used solely by internal users O D. Cross-departmental
The supply curve overtime is more elastic than the supply curve over the short period of time because, given sufficient time *production techniques become more expensive.new firms can enter the industry and old firms can increase their plant size.producers become more competitive.consumers become more demanding. Economic profit is frequently *greater than total revenue.defined as total revenue minus total fixed cost.irrelevant to the owner of a firm who is concerned instead with accounting profits.less than accounting profit. Diminishing returns *characterize all stages of production.eventually occur in all short-run production situations.are always associated with declining average product in the short-run.exist in the short run, because as additional units of an input are hired, the firm has to accept less satisfactory units.
(MANAGERIAL ECONOMICS) Show algebraic solution please Assume that B = -Q 2 + 4,500Q and C= 2Q 2 are the benefits and costs of increasing the units of X-brand energy drink (in a 500 ml bottle). B. What is the profit-maximizing value of Q? Solve the problem using a tabular solution, showing the Profit, MB, MC and MNB values; assume Q varies by 50 units (in 500ml bottle). Highlight the profit maximizing level.
Constrained Optimization A firm's total cost function is: C = 6x2 - xy + 10y2 + 30, subject to the production quota x + y = 34. Construct the Lagrange function and solve for the equilibrium values. Calculate the total cost. What is the equilibrium value of x? What is the equilibrium value of y? What is the equilibrium value of λ? What is the optimized value of cost? What is the value of the determinant of the bordered Hessian matrix? Based on the value of the determinant of the bordered Hessian matrix, comment on the optimized value of Cost. (Answer in one word.)
