Suppose the perfectly competitive price is given as $46 and the total cost of the firm is given by TC=14X+2X2, find
a. The profit maximizing level of output for the firm?
b. The profit of the firm?
a. MC=P
MC=TC′=(14X+2X2)′=14+4XMC=TC'=(14X+2X^2)'=14+4XMC=TC′=(14X+2X2)′=14+4X
14+4x=46
4x=32
x=8
b.
profit=MR−MC=46×8−(14+4×8)=368−14−32=322profit=MR-MC=46\times8-(14+4\times8)=368-14-32=322profit=MR−MC=46×8−(14+4×8)=368−14−32=322
