Suppose, market demand p = 200 - 5q, and SRTC = 20q + 100. Find the equilibrium price (p*) and quantity (q*) in the monopoly. Show your work step by step

How much is the price of a perpetual annuity with quarterly payments of $200 starting 4 years from now and discount rate (dr) 8%? Price is always the period prior to the first payment.

In mid-December 2018, the manager of Beau Apparel was preparing the firm’s production plan for the first quarter of 2019. The fore cast of the wholesale price of shirts would be used in making the production decision. The marketing researchers provided the manager with three price forecasts based on three different assumptions about economic conditions in the first quarter of 2019.

High: $20 Medium: $15 Low: $10

The total fixed costs of the production is $30,000. Beau Apparel also estimated an average variable cost function as followed:

AVC=20-0.003Q+0.00000025Q2

Under the high-price forecast, middle-price forecast and low-price forecast, answer the following questions respectively:
(a) Should the firm produce or shut down?
(b) If production is warranted, how much should the firm produce?

(c) Calculate the estimated profit or loss under the three forecasted price levels.

Jayden is a mushroom farmer. He invests all his spare cash in additional mushrooms which grow on otherwise useless land behind his barn. The mushrooms double in weight during the first year, after which they are harvested and sold at a constant price per pound. Jayden's friend Isabella asks Jayden for a loan of $200, which she promises to repay after one year. (a) If the land is useless except for growing mushrooms, what is the opportunity cost of using the land to grow mushrooms? Explain. (b) Assume that if Jayden buys $200 worth of mushrooms that he can buy 100 pounds of mushrooms, paying a price of $2 a pound. After one year how many pounds of mushrooms will he have? Explain. (c) How much will he sell the mushrooms for? Explain. (d) How much interest will Jayden charge Isabella if Jayden wants to recover the opportunity cost of making the loan? Explain. (e) Give one example of some change in the world that would cause Jayden's opportunity cost to go down (which would then cause the interest Jayden charges to also go down).

4. Suppose Chipco produces memory chips for hand-held devices such as tablets and phones. Total costs in the short-run can be described with the following formula:

TC = 300 + 5Q + 0.1(Q2)

where Q is the number of chips produced per week and TC is the total cost of chips.

a. With the above cost function in mind, make a table of Q, TC, MC, AVC, and ATC at quantities 0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90 and 100. (Hint: In Excel, suppose the Q cells are in column A, starting in row 1. The formula for the first cell of TC would be =300+5*A1+.1*A1^2)

b. If the firm competes in perfect competition and the price of these chips is $20, what is the profit-maximizing number of chips produced by Chipco? What is the profit? Show a graph of the firm (D, MR, MC, ATC) and depict the situation, including the profit box (you don’t need to plot points; just a general graph of the curves is fine).

c. If the price falls to $10, what is the profit-maximizing number of chips? What is profit?

Estimate the present market value of a 10-unit apartment house given the following information pertaining to the property.

Each apartment has 1000 square feet of living area, 3 bedrooms, and kitchen appliances. Tenants pay their own utilities. The value of the land is $250,000. The estimate replacement value is $100 per square foot for this type of construction. Total operating expenses insurance and property taxes for the year, $25,000. The rental income, $6000 month/allow 5% for vacancy and non-payment. Management fees are 6% of total rents collected. The building is 20 years old and has an estimate future useful life of 20 more years. A first mortgage is available at 6% for 75% of the purchase price. Equity will be used as the other 25% of the purchase price and the owner requires a return of 12% on the equity investment.

Compute the following:

A) Net income before capitalization

B) Capitalization rate adjusted for recapture

C) Estimated value of this property using the income approach

D) Estimated value using the replacement cost approach
