- A flour mill buys its wheat from two different farms, then processes the wheat into flour. Wheat from Farm X costs the mill $7 per bushel, and wheat from Farm Y costs the mill $15 per bushel. The selling price (in dollars per bushel) for the mill's wheat can be modeled by p(x, y) = 500 x y where x is the demand for the flour milled from Farm X's wheat and y is the demand for flour milled from Farm Y's wheat. Assume that x and y may be zero (so the mill only buys from one of the suppliers) and that the mill can by 1/2 of a bushel. Then the maximum profit is attained when x = y = bushels bushels The amount of the flour mill's maximum profit is $Consider a competitive market for red lentils with 100 identical farmers in Horsham Victoria, a competitive market price of $5 and the following MC for each farmer: MC = $0.05Q Also consider the following market demand function: QD a) Calculate the optimal level of production (in tonnes) for each farmer (show workings) = = 1000 - 40P b) Assuming 100 lentil farmers of equal size how many tonnes of lentils in total will be supplied in the entire market?
