The total cost of producing x (thousand) units is described by the function C(x) = 10 – 2.5x² + x³ where C(x) is measured in thousands of dollars. (a) Use the marginal approach to determine the profit-maximizing level of output. (6) What is total revenue at this level of output? Total cost? Total profit? 1 The profit function for a firm is -000

. A major cattle feeding operation has entered into a firm commitment to buy 100,000bushels of corn to be delivered to its feed lot in Kansas. The corn is expected to be delivered in90 days. The company is committed to pay $1.50 per bushel. If corn yields are greater thanexpected, the price of corn could decline and the company would experience higher operatingcosts than necessary as a result of the commitment.In order to protect itself against falling corn prices, the company purchased an option to sellcorn in 90 days at a strike price of $1.51 per bushel delivered to a facility in Nebraska.1. Assume that at the time of acquiring the put option, the price of corn was more than $1.51.Explain why the option had a value of more than zero at inception.2. Assume that one of your colleagues made the following comment: ‘‘An option can neverhave a negative value; therefore, you can never lose money on an option.’’ Discuss whetheror not you agree with your colleague.3. Assuming that only the…
