Answer:

Option (B) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Full-employment output = 5,000

Government purchases = 1,000

Desired consumption: Cd = 3000 - 2,000r + 0.10Y

Desired investment: Id = 1000 - 4,000r

Y = Cd + Id + Gd

Y = (3000 - 2000r + 0.10Y) + (1,000 - 4,000r) + 1,000

Y - 0.10Y = 5,000 - 6,000r

0.90Y = 5,000 - 6,000r

At full employment output level of 5,000,

0.90(5,000) = 5,000 - 6,000r

4,500 = 5,000 - 6,000r

6,000r = 500

r = 0.0833 or 8.33%

Therefore, the real interest rate that clears the goods market is equal to 8.33%.

Suppose the farm equipment manufacturer from the previous question was able to charge $30,000 per tractor, and produces and sell
LiRa [457]

Given Information:

Rent = $20,000,000

Materials and Wages = $10,000/tractor

Number of tractors = 2,000

Amount spent on R&D = $3 million

Required Information:

Lowest price to sell a tractor = ?

Answer:

Lowest price to sell a tractor = at least $20,000

Calculations & Explanation:

The company needs to sell at least at a price that all of its manufacturing cost can be recovered without the profit margin.

This happens at a break-even point where total revenue equals the total manufacturing cost.

Total manufacturing cost = Total revenue

The revenue is number of tractors multiplied by some price x

Total revenue = 2,000*x

Total manufacturing cost = fixed cost + Variable cost

Total manufacturing cost = 20,000,000 + 2,000(10,000)

Total manufacturing cost = 20,000,000 + 20,000,000

Total manufacturing cost = 40,000,000

so,

Total manufacturing cost = Total revenue

40,000,000 = 2,000*x

x = 40,000,000/2,000

x = $20,000

Therefore, the lowest price to sell each tractor should be atleast $20,000

Note: The R&D cost is not usually included in such scenarios because R&D cost is sunk and should not be added in these calculations.

Suppose a monopoly concrete contractor builds 20 driveways per month for $10,000 each. In order to increase sales to 21 driveway
wariber [46]

Answer: Marginal revenue is -$500.

Explanation: The marginal revenue is calculated as the change in total revenue subtracted by the change in quantity.

Total revenue is calculated by multiplying the price by the quantity:

At a quantity of 20 driveways, the total revenue is = 20 × $10,000 = $200,000

At a quantity of 21 driveways, the total revenue is = 21 × $9,500 = $199,500

Marginal revenue = $199,500 - $200,000

= -$500
