Use the graph below to answer the following questions:
At 200 units of the activity, marginal benefit is $__________ and marginal cost is $__________. Adding the 200th unit of the activity causes net benefit to __________ (increase, decrease) by $__________. At 700 units of the activity, marginal benefit is $__________ and marginal cost is $__________. Subtracting the 700th unit of the activity causes net benefit to __________ (increase, decrease) by $__________. The optimal level of the activity is __________units. At the optimal level of the activity, marginal benefit is $__________ and marginal cost is $_______
1) MB = 8
2) MC = 4
3) Decrease by $ 4

The following shows the demands and marginal revenue in two markets (D1 and MR1, and D2 and MR2) for a price discriminating firm along with total demand, DT, marginal revenue, MRT, and marginal cost MC. As with the PPT slides, you can view the data generating these lines; for reference, D1=600–0.5Q D2=800–0.5Q MRT=700–0.5Q DT=700–0.25Q MC=0.0009Q2–0.5Q+376 The graph shows two sets of demand (D1,D2D1,D2) and marginal revenue (MR1,MR2MR1,MR2) curves for individual markets 1 and 2, with quantity on the horizontal axis,...
The above graph shows two possible marginal cost curves for the production of hoodies (hooded sweatshirts). Assume that the hoodie market is perfectly competitive. If a hoodie industry consists of 10 firms with a marginal cost curve of MC 1 and 20 firms with a marginal cost curve of MC 2, what is the quantity of hoodies supplied at a price of $12 per hoodie? $14 $13 MC 1 $12 $11 MC 2 $10 $9 $8 Marginal Cost of Hoodies...

1. Working with Numbers and Graphs Q1 Suppose the marginal costs of reading are constant at $6 per hour, while the marginal benefits of reading decline (over time) as more reading is performed. In particular, suppose the following table contains the marginal benefit associated with various levels of hours spent reading Time Spent Reading Marginal Benefits (Hours)(Dollars per hour) 10 16 40 Assume the marginal-benefit curve is a straight line through the two points described in the table on the...
