Answer:
Explanation:
Given the following data about Dayna's Doorstep Inc(DD) :
Cost given by; C = 100 - 5Q + Q^2
Demand ; P = 55 - 2Q
A.) Set price to maximize output;
Marginal revenue (MR) = marginal cost (MC)
MR = taking first derivative of total revenue with respect to Q; (55 - 2Q^2)
MC = taking first derivative of total cost with respect to Q; (-5Q + Q^2)
MR = 55 - 4Q ; MC = 2Q - 5
55 - 4Q = 2Q - 5
60 = 6Q ; Q = 10
From
P = 55 - 2Q ;
P = 55 - 2(10) = $35
Output
35(10) - [100-5(10)+10^2]
350 - 150 = $200
Consumer surplus:
0.5Q(55-35)
0.5(10)(20) = $100
B.) Here,
Marginal cost = Price
2Q - 5 = 55 - 2Q
4Q = 60 ; Q = 15
P= 55 - 2(15) = $25
Totally revenue - total cost:
(25)(15) - [100-(5)(15)+15^2] = $125
Consumer surplus(CS) :
0.5Q(55-25) = 0.5(15)(30) = $225
C.) Dead Weight loss between Q=10 and Q=15, which is the area below the demand curve and above the marginal cost curve
=0.5×(35-15) ×(15-10)
=0.5×20×5 = $50
D.) If P=$27
27 = 55 - 2Q
2Q = 55 - 27
Q = 14
CS = 0.5×14×(55 - 27) = $196
DWL = 0.5(1)(4) = $2
Answer: Moderately slow introduction, followed by modest growth, gradually leveling off
Explanation:
The product life cycle is the time a product takes from the introduction stage to the decline stage when it's off the market.
Based on the above scenario, the product life cycle of this product will be moderately slow introduction, followed by modest growth, gradually leveling.
This is because since it's a new product, there will be a slow introduction as people will just be getting used to the product, then as customers begin to buy the product and it's brand becomes known, there'll be a modest growth before it levels off.

Explanation:
Online-only banks lack a physical presence like traditional banks. They operate over the internet and usually offer higher interest rate than the regular bank. Two reasons make them offer higher interests.
- Online banks do not require huge space under brink and mortar to operate. They do not need a large number of employees compared to other banks. It means they have low operating expenses, hence more profitable. Online-only banks can afford to pass the benefits of low running costs to their customers by offering high interest on deposits.
- Online-only banking is still a new concept in the banking industry. To gains popularity and attract more customers, online banks are offering higher interest rates than regular banks.
Answer:
Working for the firm is the best option for Marcie.
Explanation:
Option 1
The implicit value of Marcie is the benefits lost due to his working for a firm.
The implicit cost includes $60,000 of rentals lost, purchase of equipment for $25,000, expenditure of $20,000 on marketing, assistant salary of $30,000 per year and other expenses of $15,000. The revenue that the firm generate is $150,000.
The net benefit = Revenue - Implicit cost
The net benefit = $150,000 - ($60,000 + $25,000 + $20,000 + $30,000 + $15000) = Zero
Option 2
The other option is working for a firm which generates $100,000 in value.
This means the best option here for Marcie is option 2.
Answer:
C. $500.
Explanation:
The Electronic Fund Transfer Act (EFTA) establishes that the owner of a stolen debit card is liable up to $500 for any transaction made by the thief if you report the incident after 2 business days but before 60 business days of occurring.
If Delilah reported the theft within 2 business days after the card was stolen, the customer is liable for up to $50, and if you report it before any fraud has occurred then you are not responsible for any amount.
