At the break-even price, ATC is minimized and Price = ATC.
ATC is minimized when dATC/dq = 0.
dATC/dq = - (9610 / q2) + 10 = 0
9610 / q2 = 10
q2 = 961
q = 31
Break-even price = ATCminimum = (9610/31) + 1 + (10 x 31) = 310 + 1 + 310 = 621

Question 11 Tries remaining: 2 Points out of 8.33 P Flag question Suppose that a price-searcher firm had consumers who were all identical to each other. The individual consumer's demand function is givenby: 10 -5P. The firm decides to try a second-degree price discrimination scheme. The first 2 units will have a price of $1.60. After that, any units a consumer purchases will be only $1.20. The firm has a constant marginal cost of $1.00 per unit. Calculate the consumer...
