NH 2015 is the only amusement park in Goleta (it has monopoly power). The owners have decided to enact a two-part tariff: a fixe

d fee to enter and a per-photo price to get a photo taken with local celebrity Serena. Suppose that the demand for photos is q = 17 - p, and that NH 2015's cost function is C(q) = 11q. If the owners choose the fixed fee and per-photo price to maximize profits, what will the profits be?

Answer:

Maximum Profit = $9

Explanation:

We know that maximum profit occurs when,

Marginal Revenue = Marginal Cost

We are given that

q = 17 - p

or

p = 17 - q

Total revenue is given by

TR = p*q

TR = (17 - q)*q

TR = 17q - q²

The marginal revenue is given by

MR = d/dq(TR)

MR = d/dq(17q - q²)

MR = 17 - 2q

The total cost is given by,

TC = 11q

The marginal cost is given by

MC = d/dq(TC)

MC = d/dq(11q)

MC = 11

For maximum profit,

Marginal Revenue = Marginal Cost

MR = MC

17 - 2q = 11

-2q = 11 - 17

-2q = -6

q = 6/2

q = 3

So the total revenue is

TR = 17q - q²

TR = 17*3 - (3)²

TR = 51 - 9

TR = $42

So the total cost is

TC = 11q

TC = 11(3)

TC = $33

Maximum profit is given by

Maximum Profit = TR - TC

Maximum Profit = $42 - $33

Maximum Profit = $9

Therefore, a maximum profit of $9 will be obtained.

Hitman42 [59]

Answer and Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-

A).Present Value of the Cash Flow for the Lump Sum Payout

= Prize of Lottery Amount × (1 -Tax Rate)

= $506,300 × (1 - 0.46)

= $506,300 × 0.54

= $273,402

B).Present Value of the Cash Flows for Annuity Payout is

= Annuity Payment × (1 - Tax Rate) × PVIFA 8%,20 Years × (1  + Rate of Return)

= $37,000 × (1 - 0.26) × 9.8181 × (1 + .08)

= $37,000 × 0.74 × 9.8181 × 1.08

= $290,325

c). According to the analysis, $290,325 is more than the $273,402, So he should be chooses option (b) $290,325 as a payout option.

Under the assumptions of the Fisher effect and monetary neutrality, if the money supply growth rate rises, then a. neither the n
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

a. neither the nominal nor the real interest rate rise.

Explanation:

Under Fisher's theory, if the nominal interest rate increases at a higher rate than the inflation rate, then the real interest rate rises. If the inflation rate increases more than the nominal interest rate, then the real interest rate decreases.

Generally, an increase in the money supply decreases the nominal interest rate and increases the inflation rate. That results in both lower nominal interest rates and lower real interest rates.
