Details:
1.The accountants hired by Davis Golf Course have determined total fixed cost to be $75,000,
total variablecost to be $130,000, and total revenue to be $145,000. Because of this information,
in the short run, DavisGolf Course should
a. decide to shut-down.
. decide to exit the industry.
c. decide to stay open because shutting down would be more expensive.
d. decide to stay open because they are making an economic profit.
Answer:
We derive profit = total revenue – total variable cost – total fixed cost = 145000-130000-75000 =
-$60000 i.e. by continuing the production, firm is having loss of $60000.
Now suppose firm shut down the production, then loss would be $75000 in the form of total
fixed cost. This implies that shutting down would be more expensive. So DavisGolf Course
should decide to stay open because shutting down would be more expensive.


2) Refer to the above table. This firm operates in a perfectly competitive market in
which the market price is $10 per unit. What is its profit-maximizing rate of
production?
2) ______
A) 108 units B) 104 units C) 110 units D) 106 units
Answer:
We first derive marginal cost co
esponding to each level of output, where marginal
cost of nth unit is given by difference between total cost of nth unit and total cost of
(n-1)th unit.
Given this definition, the marginal cost is derived as:
Output Total costs Marginal cost
100 500 5
101 501 1
102 503 2
103 506 3
104 510 4
105 518...
