1. a) Suppose a manufacturing company can use either Humans or Robots to produce output (Q) (consider Humans and Robots to be substitutes). The Marginal Product of Humans is 10 units of output per hour and the Marginal Product of Robots is 32.5 units of output per hour. Humans cost $7 per hour and Robots cost $20 per hour. What is the firm's Total Cost Function?

b) Suppose the firm is producing 50 units of output. Using a graph, draw the firm's isoquant for Q = 50. Also, on the same graph, draw the isocost line associated with the total cost of producing Q = 50.

Your graph should be accurate and carefully labeled.  Please put the number of pounds of hours of Humans (H) on the vertical axis, and the number of hours of Robots (R) on the horizontal axis. Make sure to clearly indicate the cost-minimizing combination of Humans and Robots that the firm should use to make 50 units of output, and to clearly label both the isocost line and the isoquant.

Schmutz Auto Wash provides car washes. Its production function is ? = 2?1/2(? - 1)1/2
where ? is cars washed per day, ? is daily hours of labor input, and ? is daily usage of capital inputs. The price of a unit of capital input is $48. The price of a unit of labor input is $16. In the short run, Schmutz has four units of capital input installed (so ? = 4).

a). Find Schmutz’s short run daily total cost function, short run daily variable cost function, and short run daily fixed costs.

b). Find Schmutz’s short run marginal cost function, short run average variable cost function, and short run total cost function.

c). Suppose that the market for car washes is perfectly competitive and the going market price of a car wash is ?. Find Schmutz’s short run daily supply function, including its shutdown price.

d). Find Schmutz’s profit in the short run if ? = 40.

The following cost data relate to the manufacturing activities of Black Company during the just-completed year:

  Manufacturing overhead costs:
     Property taxes, factory $ 3,900
     Utilities, factory 6,350
     Indirect labour 11,800
     Depreciation, factory 26,250
     Insurance, factory 7,800
     Total actual manufacturing overhead costs $ 56,100
  Other costs incurred:
     Purchases of raw materials. $ 36,500
     Direct labour cost $ 46,300
  Inventories:
     Raw materials, beginning $ 9,800
     Raw materials, ending $ 7,900
     Work in process, beginning $ 7,350
     Work in process, ending $ 9,300

  

     The company uses a predetermined overhead rate to apply overhead cost to production. The rate for the year was $5 per machine-hour; a total of 12,000 machine-hours were recorded for the year. All raw materials ultimately become direct materials—none are classified as indirect materials.

Required:
1.

Compute the amount of underapplied or overapplied overhead cost for the year.

        

2.

Prepare a schedule of cost of goods manufactured for the year.
