1. Opportunity Explicit (which is only one part of the OC)

2. Sometimes Always

3. Input Output

4. Some more small unit One additional unit

5. Average variable cost Average total cost

6. Avc No. It only affects the FC

7. Accounting Economic

8. Total product Marginal product

80
9. 400 800

10. Diseconomies of scale The law of diminishing returns

III.Problem
Problem 1:
a. The fixed cost is $300, because fixed cost equals total cost minus variable cost.

b.
Quantity Total Variable Marginal Cost Marginal Cost
Cost Cost (using total cost)
(using variable cost)

0 $300 $0 --- ---

1 350 50 $50 $50

2 390 90 40 40

3 420 120 30 30

4 450 150 30 30

5 490 190 40 40

6 540 240 50 50

Marginal cost equals the change in total cost for each additional unit of output. It is also
equal to the change in variable cost for each additional unit of output. This occurs
because total cost equals the sum of variable cost and fixed cost and fixed cost does not
change as the quantity changes. Thus, as quantity increases, the increase in total cost
equals the increase in variable cost.

Problem 2:

The following table illustrates average fixed cost (AFC), average variable cost (AVC), and
average total cost (ATC) for each quantity. The efficient scale is four houses per month,
because that minimizes average total cost.

7 640 200 840 28.6 91.4 120

Problem 3:
The lump-sum tax causes an increase in fixed cost. Therefore, as Figure 10 shows, only average
fixed cost and average total cost will be affected.

b. Refer to Figure 11. Average variable cost, average total cost, and marginal cost will all
be greater. Average fixed cost will be unaffected.

1. ANS:
The firm selects the level of output at which marginal revenue is equal to marginal cost. If MR > MC, profit
will increase if the firm increases Q. If MR < MC, profit will increase if the firm decreases Q.

III. PROBLEM

Problem 1

ANS:

a. The following table shows total revenue and marginal revenue for each price and quantity
sold:

Total Marginal
Price Quantity Total Cost Profit
Revenue Revenue

$190,00
24 10,000 $240,000 ---- $50,000
0

22 20,000 440,000 $20 100,000 340,000

14 60,000 840,000 4 300,000 540,000

b. Profits are maximized at a price of $16 and quantity of 50,000. At that point, profit is
$550,000.

c. As Johnny's agent, you should recommend that he demand $550,000 from them, so he
receives all of the profit (rather than the record company).

Problem 2

ANS:

Larry wants to sell as many drinks as possible without losing money, so he wants to set quantity
where price (demand) equals average total cost, which occurs at quantity QL and price PL in
Figure 6. Curly wants to bring in as much revenue as possible, which occurs where marginal
revenue equals zero, at quantity QC and price PC. Moe wants to maximize profits, which occurs
where marginal cost equals marginal revenue, at quantity QM and price PM.

106
Figure 6

Problem 3

ANS:

a. The marginal revenue from selling to each type of consumer is shown in the following
tables:

Price Quantity of Adult Total Revenue from Marginal Revenue from


Tickets Sale of Adult Tickets Sale of Adult Tickets
10 0 0 ----
9 100 900 9
8 200 1,600 7
7 300 2,100 5
6 300 1,800 -3
5 300 1,500 -3
4 300 1,200 -3
3 300 900 -3
2 300 600 -3
1 300 300 -3
0 300 0 -3

107
Price Quantity of Child Total Revenue from Marginal Revenue from
Tickets Sale of Child Tickets Sale of Child Tickets
10 0 0 ----
9 0 0 0
8 0 0 0
7 0 0 0
6 0 0 0
5 100 500 5

3 200 600 -2
2 200 400 -2
1 200 200 -2
0 200 0 -2

To maximize profit, you should charge adults $7 and sell 300 tickets. You should charge
children $4 and sell 200 tickets. Total revenue will be $2,100 + $800 = $2,900. Because total
cost is $2,000, profit will be $900.

b. If price discrimination were not allowed, you would want to set a price of $7 for the tickets.
You would sell 300 tickets and profit would be $100.

c. The children who were willing to pay $4 but will not see the show now that the price is $7
will be worse off. The producer is worse off because profit is lower. Total surplus is lower.
There is no one that is better off.

d. In (a) total profit would be $400. In (b), there would be a $400 loss. There would be no
change in (c).

II.Correct the mistakes

1. Externality is the uncompensated impact of one person’s actions on the well-being of a


bystander
2. In the presence of a negative externality, such as pollution, the social cost of the good
exceeds the private cost
3. Positive externalities lead markets to produce a smaller quantity than is socially desirable
4. corrective tax is a tax designed to induce private decision makers to take account of the
social costs that arise from a negative externality
5. public goods are neither excludable nor rival in consumption
6. A good is excludable if it is possible to prevent someone from using it.
7. Common resources are rival in consumption but not excludable
8. governments provide public goods, making their decision about the quantity of each good
based on cost–benefit analysis.

III.SHORT ANSWER

1. ANS:

123
When a positive externality exists, the private value (or demand curve) is less than the social value. The
market equilibrium quantity will be less than the socially optimal quantity. The government could help
eliminate this inefficiency by subsidizing the product. In this example, the size of the per-unit subsidy
would be P3 - P1.

One solution would be to have one person own both the farm fields and the beehives, in which case the

No one owns the wild salmon, while private individuals own goldfish. The profit motive leads to different
allocations of the resources. Salmon fishermen have an individual incentive to catch as many salmon as
possible before someone else does. Pet shop owners have a profit incentive to breed goldfish to sell to
consumers.
