The figure below shows the cost structure of this utility for various levels of water service. Quantity of water consumption is measured in 1,000-gallon units per month. AQFC is the average quasi-fixed cost curve, and LAC is long-run average cost. Long-run marginal cost, LMC, is constant and equal to $4 per 1,000-gallon unit.

- A recent engineering was given the job of determining the best production rate for a new type of casting in a foundry. After experimenting with many combinations of hourly production rates and total production cost per hour, he summarized his findings in table below (column 2). The engineering then talked to the firm’s marketing specialist, who provided estimates of selling price per casting as a function of production output (see table 1 column 3). There are 8,760 hours in a year. What production rate would you recommend to maximize total profits per year? a) 100 ; b) 200 ; c) 300 ; d) 400 ; e) 500 show the computation how to solve it.arrow_forwardA recent engineering was given the job of determining the best production rate for a new type of casting in a foundry.
