Given that the marginal cost is $18, and the price per Bushel of $48, the farmer can choose to increase production or not. This is because at this margin, the return on investment will be:
(48-18)/18*100
=166.67%
Which means he'll still be profitable if he chooses to do nothing. The correct answer is:
c. stay at this level of production.

A cereal company's cost, in thousands of dollars, is represented by the function C ( x ) = 2 x + 4500 and its revenue, in thousa
maxonik [38]

Answer:

31,500

Explanation:

Cost function, C (x) = 2 x + 4500

Revenue function, R (x) = 5 x

Profit = Total revenue - Total cost

         = R(x) - C(x)

         = 5 x - [2 x + 4500]

         = 3 x - 4,500

If company sells 12,000 boxes, then profit will be:

=  3 x - 4,500

= 3(12,000) - 4,500

= 36,000 - 4,500

= 31,500

Therefore, 31,500 is the profit earn by the company by selling 12,000 boxes of cereal.

Option D: The entry is to record the liability for vacations earned by the employees so an expenses has to be recorded.

Option E: The option reduces the liability and reduces the expenses which is against the requirement of  the question
