Answer: $1800

Explanation:

Here is the correct question:

Joe has just moved to a small town with only one golf​ course, the Northlands Golf Club. His inverse demand function is p=140-2q, where q is the number of rounds of golf that he plays per year. The manager of the Northlands Club negotiates separately with each person who joins the club and can therefore charge individual prices. This manager has a good idea of what​ Joe's demand curve is and offers Joe a special​ deal, where Joe pays an annual membership fee and can play as many rounds as he wants at ​$20, which is the marginal cost his round imposes on the Club. What membership fee would maximize profit for the​ Club? The manager could have charged Joe a single price per round. How much extra profit does the Club earn by using​ two-part pricing? The​ profit-maximizing membership fee​ (F) is ​$nothing. ​(Enter your response as a whole​ number.)

Answer:

p = 140 - 2q

The profit-maximizing membership fee​ will be equal to total surplus

Therefore, the number of rounds that Joe played will be,

P = MC

20 = 140 - 2q

2q = 140 - 20

2q = 120

q = 120/2

q = 60

Total surplus = 1/2 × (vertical intercept of the demand curve - marginal cost) × the quantiy of rounds.

Total surplus = 1/2 × (140 - 20) × 60

= 1/2 × 120 × 60

= 3600

Therefore, the maximum membership fee will be = $3600.

If the firm charge Joe a single price , then the rounds provided will be such that MR = MC

Total revenue = price × quantity

TR = (140 - 2q) × q

TR = 140q - 2q²

MR = dTR/dQ = 140 - 4q

We then equate MR = MC

140 - 4q = 20

4q = 140 - 20

4q = 120

q = 120/4

q = 30

P = 140 - 2q

P = 140 - (2 × 30)

P = 140 - 60

P = 80

Therefore, the profit if a single price is charge will be:

= TR - TC = pq - MC×q = (P-MC)×Q

= (80-20) × 30

= $1800

Therefore, the increase in the profit by two-par pricing will be:

=Membership fee - Profit of single price charge

= $3600 - $1800

= $1800

Answer:

superseding cause

Explanation:

According to my research on different liability law suits, I can say that based on the information provided within the question Iris will not be liable for this second set of injuries because the plane crash was a superseding cause. This refers to an accident that happens after another (initial accident) has already occurred in which an injury has happened. In this type of situation the person who caused the initial accident is not responsible for the second accident or injuries caused by it.

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.

UkoKoshka [18]

No, because 100,000 is much greater than the values used in the experiment

Explanation:

The advertisement budget is an estimation of the company's commercial spending for a specified amount of time. More specifically, it is the capital that a organisation is able to put aside to accomplish its marketing goals.

In developing an advertisement budget, a corporation must balance the importance of the promotional dollar against the value of the dollar as known revenue.

Better promotional budgets — and campaigns — focus on consumers' desires and address their challenges, not on business concerns such as overstock elimination.

The demand for yak butter is given by 150 – 3pd and the supply is 3ps – 30, where Pa is the price paid by demanders and ps is th
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

1) Attached

2) 150-3p = 3p-30

3) P=30, Q=60

4) 150-3p = 3p-90

5) P=40 and Q=30

6) Ps=Pd+10

7) P=35, Q=45

8) P=45, Q=45

Explanation:

We can write the equation for the quantity demanded as:

Q_d=150-3p_d

And the equation for the quantity supplied as:

Q_s=3p_s-30

1) Attached

2) The equilibrium price can be calculated by making the quantity supplied equal to quantity demanded:

Q_s=Q_d\\\\3p-30=150-3p\\\\6p=150+30=180\\\\p=180/6=30

3) The equilibrium price is P=30.

The equilibrium quantity can be calculated as:

Q_s=150-3*30=150-90=60

The equilibrium quantity is Q=60.

4) The supply now becomes:

Q'_s=3p_s-90

The equation for the new equilibrium price is:

Q_d=Q'_s\\\\150-3p=3p-90\\\\6p=150+90=240\\\\p=240/6=40

Qd=150-3*40=150-120=30

5) The new equilibrium is at p=40 and Q=30

6) They will receive

p_s=p_d+subsidy=p_d+10

7)  In this case, the quantity supplied becomes:

Q_s=3p_s-90=3(p+10)-90=3p+30-90=3p-60

The new price equilibrium becomes P=35:

Q_s=Q_d\\\\3p-60=150-3p\\\\6p=150+60\\\\p=210/6=35

The quantity for this equilibrium is Q=45:

Q_d=150-3*35=150-105=45

8) Now, the equations for demand and supply are:

Q_s=3p-90\\\\Q_d=150-3(p-10)=150-3p+30=180-3p

The equilibrium price and quantity becomes:

Q_d=Q_s\\\\180-3p=3p-90\\\\6p=180+90\\\\p=270/6=45\\\\\\Q_d=180-3*45=180-135=45

ADVANCED ANALYSIS Assume the following values for Figures 4.4a and 4.4b: Q1 = 20 bags. Q2 = 15 bags. Q3 = 27 bags. The market eq
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

a. Total surplus is the area bounded by points a, b, and c. To calculate total surplus, we use the following formula for the area of a triangle: Area = ½ × Base × Height. The area between the demand curve and the supply curve for the quantity ranging from 0 to 20 is the total economic surplus. This is a triangle with a base (best read off the price axis) of $80, which is the price difference at Q = 0, or between points a and c, and a height of 20 (the number of units purchased in equilibrium). Using these values, we have a total surplus of (1/2) × $80 × 20 = $800.

The consumer surplus is the area between the demand curve and the equilibrium price line. Here we have a base of $40 (the price difference between the demand schedule price at Q = 0, which is $85, and the equilibrium price of $45). The height of the triangle is once again 20 (the number of units purchased in equilibrium). Using these values, we have a consumer surplus of (1/2) × 40 × 20 = $400.

b. Deadweight loss is the difference in total surplus between an efficient level of output Q1 and a reduced level of output at Q2. We can calculate this as the area of a triangle bounded by points bde. The base of this triangle is the difference in prices at points d and e, or $55 – $35 = $20. The height of this triangle is given by the difference in the restricted level of output of Q2 = 15 and the efficient level of output Q1 = 20, or 5 units. Thus, the area of this triangle (the deadweight loss) is equal to (1/2) × $20 × 5 = $50. The remaining total surplus can be found by subtracting the deadweight loss from the original (efficient) total surplus. This is $800 (maximum total surplus) – $50 (deadweight loss) = $750.

c. The deadweight loss from overproduction is the difference in total surplus between an efficient level of output Q1 and an additional level of output at Q3. We can calculate this as the area of a triangle bounded by points bfg. The base of this triangle is the difference in prices at points f and g, or $59 – $31 = $28. The height of this triangle is given by the difference in the additional level of output Q3 = 27 and the efficient level of output Q1 = 20, or 7 units. Thus, the area of this triangle (the deadweight loss) is equal to (1/2) × $28 × 7 = $98. The remaining total surplus can be found by subtracting the deadweight loss from the original total surplus. This is $800 (maximum total surplus) – $98 (deadweight loss) = $702. Note here that we maximize total (producer + consumer) surplus by producing the equilibrium quantity, but we lose surplus from overproduction (inefficient use of resources).
