if Q = 15
C1 = 3600 + 65*15 + 36*15^2 = 12675
C2 = 900 + 900*15 + 15^2 = 14625
As C1 is lower, technology 1 should be used
if Q = 25
C1 = 3600 + 65*25 + 36*25^2 = 27725
C2 = 900 + 900*25 + 25^2 = 24025
As C2 is lower, technology 2 should be used

Assume a certain firm is producing 1000 units of output (so Q = 1000). At Q = 1000, the firm’s marginal cost equals $15 and its average total cost equals $11. The firm sells its output for $12 per unit. Refer to Scenario 14-1. To maximize its profit, what should the firm do? Question 17 options: It should shut down. It should decrease its output, but continue to produce. It should continue to produce 1000 units. It should increase its...
