Here are some true and false questions to see if you understand the revenue and profit terms and the three key rules to maximize profit. Briefly explain why you chose that answer
1)If a firm sells 200 units of its product at a price of 8 dollars, its total profit will be 1600.
2)If the average revenue from 150 units is 20 dollars, the firm's total revenue is 3000 dollars.
3)If the marginal revenue from the 21st unit is 30 dollars, then the total revenue from 22 units is 30 dollars greater than the total revenue from 21 units
4) As long as MR is greater than MC, a firm's total profit will increase if it increases its level of output.

The marketing department for a cell phone telephone company has
determined that the demand for their phone obeys the following
relationship: p= -0.02+200 , (0 ≤ p ≤10,000) , where p denotes the
phone’s unit price (in dollars) and x the quantity demanded. This
type of question is much easier when you use your calculator, I
just need to know what you did when you give me an answer using
it,
(a) Express the revenue as a function of x: Round all of the
following answers to the nearest penny when necessary.
(b) Find the rate of change in the revenue between the 2,000th and
4,000th phone.
(c) Find the rate in change of revenue from the sale of the 5,118th
phone.
(d) Find the exact revenue from the sale of the 815th
telephone.
(e) Use the marginal revenue function to estimate the revenue from
the sale of the 815th phone. (f) Find the average revenue from the
sale of 3000 phones.

RE Construct, property developer, builds a residential complex consisting of 50 apartments. Apartments have a similar size and proportions – however, they can be customized to clients’ needs.
RE Construct enters into 2 contracts with 2 different clients (A and B). Both clients want to buy almost identical apartments and agree with total price of RM100,000 per apartment. The payment schedule is as follows:
Assumed period of construction is 2 years from the date of contract. RE Construct has the right to retain the payments from any client in the situation when that client defaults on the contract before its completion.
The contracts with clients A and B are NOT identical. Further contractual terms specify that:
If the client B defaults on the contract before its completion (in other words, does not make payments in line with the schedule), RE Construct has the right for all contractual price if RE Construct decides to complete the contract.
