The total market value of fish caught by a fleet of fishing
boats (per month) is given by:
V = $40,000B - $1000B2
Where B is the number of boats engaged in fishing.
The cost of running one fishing boat for one month is $18,000,
giving the total cost of running B fishing boats as $16,000B
Write down an expression for total net profit for the entire
fishing fleet
Find the number of boats that would maximize this total net
profit
Suppose that when B boats operate, each boat gets V/B (catch is
split equally). Each boat captain can decide to operate in a given
month or not. How many boats will choose to operate?
What is V and V/B with the number of boats you found in
3)c)?
