There are 25 equal-sized offices in TechCenter, each one leased to a different company. TechCenter is closed 45 days a year (Sundays plus official federal holidays), which limits the demand for Marvel's cleaning services to a maximum of 320 cleanings per year for each one of the 25 companies leasing offices. Marvel believes it faces an identical demand by each one of the 25 businesses in TechCenter. This demand function is given as P = 80 -0.25Q. Marvel's costs are constant and equal to $30 per office cleaning. The owner of Marvel Cleaning Service is considering uniform pricing
4.1. If Marvel practices uniform pricing, it will charge ________ for an office cleaning and will face a quantity demanded from each of the 25 identical firms of __________ cleanings per year.
4.2. At TechCenter, Marvel's total profit per year is __________ (i.e., the sum of the profits from the 25 businesses in TechCenter). Each one of the businesses enjoys ____________ of consumer surplus under uniform pricing.

On the following graph, use the orange points (square symbol) to plot the marginal-cost curve for Jane's Juice Bar. (Note: Be sure to plot from left to right and to plot between integers. For example, if the marginal cost of increasing production from 1 vat of juice to 2 vats of juice is $5, then you would plot a point at (1.5, 5).) Then use the purple points (diamond symbol) to plot the average-variable cost curve starting at 1 vat of juice, and use the green points (triangle symbol) to plot the average-total-cost curve also starting at 1 vat of juice.
