Price Quantity Total Revenue Fixed Cost Variable Cost Profit (Dollars per tote) (Totes) (Dollars) (Dollars) (Dollars) (Dollars) 10.00 44,000 16.00 44,000 40.00 44,000 If the firm shuts down, it must incur its fixed costs (FC) in the short run. In this case, the firm's fixed cost is $44,000 per day. In other words, if it shuts down, the firm would suffer losses of $44,000 per day until its fixed costs end (such as the expiration of a building lease). This firm's shutdown price—that is, the price below which it is optimal for the firm to shut down—is per tote.

Only typed answer and please answer correctly It is possible to lower the average cost of production by expanding output beyond Q0 to Q1. Why wouldn't a firm expand its output to Q1? Group of answer choices a) Demand is not sufficient for consumers to buy Q1. b) The firm would suffer an economic loss at Q1 while it would break even at Q0. c) The firm's marginal revenue would be negative at Q1. d) The firm wants to maximize accounting profit rather than economic profit.
Disney just raised its 3 day 3 park pass from $110.00 to $121.00. Sales fell from 4,000 per week to 3,000 per week. Did Disney management do the right thing? Why? What should they do next? (Hint – look at revenues)
A company participating in a market of perfect competition invoices monthly 154,200 units, the sum of $308,400,000, so P = $2,000 With this level of sales, the company has saturated its production capacity and as a result its costs have risen sharply. Its marginal cost (MC) is MC = (q2 / 2,000,000) - (q / 20) + 2,450. It is determined that its fixed costs (FC) amount to $20,500,000. You want to know: (a) whether the company should increase or decrease its production and by how much. b) what would be the optimal level of production (q*)? c) what is the profit at the optimal level of production? d) what is the company's current profit?
