The demand function for a tablet is given by the model P= 200-16x2 where p is measured in dollars per tablet and x is measured in millions of tablets. If it costs $50 to produce each tablet and a profit of $125 million was derive when 2.5 million tablets were produced. Derive the number of tablets that the company could sell to make the same amount of profit?

At a price of R 8 per item consumers will buy 1500 units. If the company increases the price by R1 per item, the number of items that the consumers will buy will decrease by 75. i) Does the function described represent a supply or demand curve? Find the formula of the function given that it is a linear function. ii) Find the price that will maximize the revenue.
Find average revenue if output is 100 units and total revenue is $2000
The average revenue is given as 70 and total revenue is given as 700 Find the quantity produced
Imagine the demand function for your firm’s product is q = 1500 – 4P. How much is the Total revenue when q=100?
A local firm produces three types of Pizza, for delivery to homes in the area. The owner has completed research, to discover the demand curves for each of the three pizzas. The schedules are shown below: (Quantities are per week). Price Pizza A (Qd) Pizza B (Qd) Pizza C (Qd) 12 800 0 100 11 840 0 200 10 880 400 300 9 920 800 400 8 960 1200 500 7 1000 1600 600 6 1040 2000 700 5 1080 2400 800 Plot the three demand curves, on one graph. (It does not have to be Excel). Calculate PED for all three pizzas over the price range $9 to $10. Use the midpoint formula (see your class lecture notes.) Explain why the three PED measures are different. What change would make all three PED measures become more elastic? What about more inelastic?

On the graph input tool, change the number found in the Quantity Demanded field to determine the prices that correspond to the production of 0, 6, 12, 15, 18, 24, and 30 units of output. Calculate the total revenue for each of these production levels. Then, on the following graph, use the green points (triangle symbol) to plot the results. Calculate the total revenue if the firm produces 6 versus 5 units. Then, calculate the marginal revenue of the sixth unit produced. The marginal revenue of the sixth unit produced is________. Calculate the total revenue if the firm produces 12 versus 11 units. Then, calculate the marginal revenue of the 12th unit produced. The marginal revenue of the 12th unit produced is_________.
