The Gourmand Cooking School runs short cooking courses at its small campus. Management has identified two cost drivers it uses in its budgeting and performance reports—the number of courses and the total number of students. For example, the school might run two courses in a month and have a total of 61 students enrolled in those two courses. Data concerning the company’s cost formulas appear below:
| Fixed Cost per Month | Cost per Course | Cost per Student |
|||||
| Instructor wages | $ | 2,940 | |||||
| Classroom supplies | $ | 270 | |||||
| Utilities | $ | 1,200 | $ | 80 | |||
| Campus rent | $ | 4,800 | |||||
| Insurance | $ | 2,100 | |||||
| Administrative expenses | $ | 3,900 | $ | 42 | $ | 4 | |
For example, administrative expenses should be $3,900 per month plus $42 per course plus $4 per student. The company’s sales should average $880 per student.
The company planned to run four courses with a total of 61 students; however, it actually ran four courses with a total of only 57 students. The actual operating results for September appear below:
| Actual | ||
| Revenue | $ | 50,780 |
| Instructor wages | $ | 11,040 |
| Classroom supplies | $ | 16,320 |
| Utilities | $ | 1,930 |
| Campus rent | $ | 4,800 |
| Insurance | $ | 2,240 |
| Administrative expenses | $ | 3,738 |
Required:

(Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (i.e., zero variance). Input all amounts as positive values.)

Consider the market for potatoes. You can assume perfect
competition.
It is known that the market equilibrium price is $3 per kg and the
market equilibrium quantity is 100,000 kg. It is known that when
the price is $3 price elasticity of demand is 0.4 and price
elasticity of supply is 1.1. Assume that initially the market for
potatoes is in equilibrium.
a) Draw a diagram with (downward-sloping) demand and
(upward-sloping) supply schedules. Indicate the market equilibrium,
consumer surplus, producer surplus and the dead-weight loss.
(Remember the relation between elasticity and the absolute slope of
the demand and supply schedules. You do not have to be precise,
just make sure it is clear which schedule is steeper).
You answer.
b) If the price increases by 5% what would be the percentage change of quantity demanded? What would be the new quantity demanded? If the price increases from $3 to $3.03 what would be the new quantity producers would be willing to supply?
You answer.
c) The government decides to introduce a 10% tax on the price of potatoes. How would such a decision affect the equilibrium price (paid by consumers) and the equilibrium quantity? Explain using a clearly labelled graph. (Note that you are not required to calculate anything in this question.)
You answer.
d) What would happen to consumer surplus, producer surplus, government revenue and the dead-weight loss when the 10% tax on the price of potatoes is implemented. Explain. Show the new consumer surplus, producer surplus, government revenue and the dead-weight loss on the graph in part c). Who bears higher tax burden, consumers or producers? Explain.
You answer.
