A firm can produce at most x = 2500 units per month, and their marginal cost function has been computed to be MC=1200+x , while the cost of producing and selling 30 units is $70,000. If their marginal revenue function has been computed to be MR=3500 , then find: The number of units of production resulting in maximum monthly profit The maximum monthly profit Associated fixed costs
