A local company is planning to manufacture and market a four-slice toaster. For this toaster, the research department’s estimates are aweekly demand of 300 toasters at a price of $25 per toaster and a weekly demand of 400 toasters at a price of $20. The financial department’s estimates are fixed weekly costs of$5,000 and variable costs of $5 per toaster. a) Assume that the relationship between price ? and demand ? is linear. Use the research department’s estimates to express ? as a function of ? and determine the domain of the function. b) Using your knowledge from Finite Math, determine the Revenue function in terms of ?. c) Determine the Marginal Revenue at 2 different production levels for example 250 and 500 units.

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.
You're company manufactures on large scale unit and it has been shown that marginal or variable cost are given by this function (92-2x)sh where xis the number of units of output per annum the fixed costs are 800000 annually, it has also been shown that the marginal revenue which is the gradient ot the total revenue is given by (112-2x) ... required determine by integration the total cost, the total revenue , the break even point of your company and the number of units of output that would maximise total revenue
FG Manufacturers wants to determine the effectiveness of their pricing decisions for their product Lylo. As a consultant, you have been asked to develop cost functions that will assist in arriving at the optimal price that will enable the company to maximize profits. During the year, you were provided with the following demand and costs functions for the product: P = 400 – 6Q; where P is the unit selling price and Q is quantity in thousands of units. TC = 8Q2 + 36Q + 150; where TC is total cost in thousands of dollars. Determine the optimal sales revenue. Calculate the maximum profit. Briefly outline two (2) factors to be considered by managementswhen pricing decisions are being made.
A company makes solar panels. The company’s revenue function, in dollars, is R(n)=10n , where n is the number of panels produced. The cost function is C(n)=100(2)π/30 . R and C are shown on the graphbelow. a) Estimate from the graph i) the break-even points ii) the number of panels that should be produced for maximum profit b) Write the equation for the profit function P. c) Graph P. d) Use your graph of P to estimate the number of panels that give maximum profit. e) How would your answers for break-even points and maximum profit change if i) the number of dollars of revenue per panel is increased slightly? ii) the cost function is C(n)=100(2)π/35 changed to ? f) What does the number that was changed in part e) ii) represent?
