Let $x = the cost per flower.

Number of roses sold = 20
Profit on 20 roses = $6

Cost = (30 roses)($x per rose) = $ 20x
Revenue = ($0.50 per rose)*(20 roses) = $10
Profit = $10 - $ 20x = $6

That is,
10 - 20x = 6
20x = 10 - 6
20x = 4
x = $0.2 = 20 cents

Answer: She paid 20 cents per flower.

podryga [215]

Answer:

Option C 16.36% is correct.

Explanation:

We can find the growth using the following growth formula:

g = (Earning per share today / Earning per share n years ago)^(1/5)  - 1

EPS of this year is $3.2 per share and 5 ago was $1.5 per share.

So by putting values we have:

g = (3.2 / 1.5) ^(1/5)  - 1  = 16.36%

The right option is C.

AFC=FC/Q

AVC=VC/0

ATC=TC/0

a) TC when 0=0 = 40 because FC = 40 remains constant and the firm still incurs a total cost equal to its FC when it produces zero output.

b) MC for first unit = 45

c) ATC of 3rd unit = 63

d) AVC for 4th unit = 93
