1.1. Determining an Optimal Price A firm’s Marketing Department has estimated the demand curve of a product as y =1100-7x, where y represents demand and x represents the unit selling price (in dollars) for the relevant decision period. The unit cost is known to be $24. What price maximizes net income from sales of the product?
Price=$90.57
Output=475.5

An economic consultant for X Corp. recently provided the firm’s marketing manager with this estimate of the demand function for the firm’s product: Q d x = 98 − 4Px + 6Py − 1M where Qd x represents the amount consumed of good X, Px is the price of good X, Py is the price of good Y , and M is income. Suppose good Y sells for $2 per unit and consumer income is $10. (a) Are goods X and Y substitutes...
The inverse demand curve for product x is given by px=20−4·qx+2·py where px represents the price in dollars per unit, qx represents the rate of sales in pounds per week, and py represents the selling price of another product y in dollars per unit. The inverse supply curve of product x is given by px=10+2·qx Determine the equilibrium price and sales of X Let py=$10. Determine whether x and y are substitutes or complements
Cafe Caffe sells its product at a price of €5 each (the demand curve is horizontal at this price). Its total and marginal cost functions are: TC = 50 – q + 0.0192 MC = -1+0.02, where TC and MC are measured in €, and q is the output rate. (a) Determine the output rate that maximizes profit or minimizes losses in the short run. (b) Calculate the profit earned at the output level you calculated in (a). (c) Suppose...

The demand for your product X has been estimated to be Qx = 7, 880 − 4Px − 2Py + Pz − 0.1M where Y and Z are other (related) products. The relevant price and income data are as follows: Px = 10, Py = 15, Pz = 50, M = 40, 000 (Please show work and answers to questions a-e) a. Which goods are substitutes for X? Which are complements? b. Is X an inferior or a normal good?...
Because the derivative of a function represents both the slope of the tangent to the curve and the instantaneous rate of change of the function, it is possible to use information about one to gain information about the other. Consider the graph of the function y = f(x) given in the figure. (a) Over what interval(s) (a) through (d) is the rate of change of f(x) positive? (Select all that apply.) OOOO (b) Over what interval(s) (a) through (d) is...

1. Consumer’s utility function is: U (X,Y) = 10X + Y. Consumer’s income M is 40 euros, the price per unit of good X (i.e. Px ) is 5 euros and the price per unit of good Y (i.e. Py) is 1 euro. a) What is the marginal utility of good X (MUx) for the consumer? ( Answer: MUx = 10) b) What is the marginal utility of good Y (MUy) for the consumer? ( Answer: MUy = 1) c)...
