Action No Recycling Recycling Chemical Lab (Dollars) 2,400 2,100 Profit Water Park (Dollars) 1,100 1,900 Total (Dollars) Total economic profit is highest when the recycling production method is When the chemical lab uses the recycling method, the water park earns $1,900 - $1,100 = $800 more per week than it does with no recycling. Therefore, the water park should be willing to pay up to $800 per week for the chemical lab to recycle water. However, the recycling method decreases the chemical lab's economic profit by $2,400 - $2,100 = $300 per week. Therefore, the chemical lab should be willing to use the recycling method if it is compensated with at least $300 per week. Suppose the water park has the property rights to the lake. That is, the water park has the right to a clean (unpolluted) lake. In this case, assuming the two firms can bargain at no cost, the chemical lab will the recycling method and will pay the water park per week. Now, suppose the chemical lab has the property…
1-18 Katherine D’Ann is planning to finance her college education by selling programs at the football games for State University. There is a fixed cost of $400 for printing these programs, and the variable cost is $3. There is also a $1,000 fee that is paid to the university for the right to sell these programs. If Katherine was able to sell programs for $5 each, how many would she have to sell in order to break even?

The total cost of producing x (thousand) units is described by the function C(x) = 10 – 2.5x² + x³ where C(x) is measured in thousands of dollars. (a) Use the marginal approach to determine the profit-maximizing level of output. (6) What is total revenue at this level of output? Total cost? Total profit? 1 The profit function for a firm is -000
Action No Recycling Recycling (Dollars) 1,800 1,100 (Dollars) 1,500 2,600 Total economic profit is highest when the recycling production method is (Dollars) When the chemical lab uses the recycling method, the water park earns $2,600 – $1,500 = $1,100 more per week than it does with no recycling. Therefore, the water park should be willing to pay up to $1,100 per week for the chemical lab to recycle water. However, the recycling method decreases the chemical lab's economic profit by $1,800 – $1,100 = $700 per week. Therefore, the chemical lab should be willing to use the recycling method if it is compensated with at least $700 per week. Suppose the water park has the property rights to the lake.

The demand for q units of a product depends on the price p (in dollars) according to 512 P q= - 1, for p > 0. Find and explain the meaning of the instantaneous rate of change of demand with respect to price when the price is as follows. (a) $16 (b) $64 Interpret the instantaneous rate of change. O If price decreases by the absolute value of this amount, the demand will drop by 1 unit. O If price increases by $1, the demand will increase by the absolute value of this number of units. If price decreases by $1, the demand will drop by the absolute value of this number of units. If price increases by the absolute value of this amount, the demand will drop by 1 unit.
