A company manufactures rope, and the total cost of producing r r feet of rope is C ( r ) C(r) dollars. What does it mean to say that C ( 2000 ) = 800 ? C(2000)=800? What are the units of C ′ ( r ) ? C′(r)? Suppose that C ( 2000 ) = 800 C(2000)=800 and C ′ ( 2000 ) = 0.35 . C′(2000)=0.35. Estimate C ( 2100 ) , C(2100), and justify your estimate by writing at least one sentence that explains your thinking. Do you think C ′ ( 2000 ) C′(2000) is less than, equal to, or greater than C ′ ( 3000 ) ? C′(3000)? Why? Suppose someone claims that C ′ ( 5000 ) = − 0.1 . C′(5000)=−0.1. What would the practical meaning of this derivative value tell you about the approximate cost of the next foot of rope? Is this possible? Why or why not?

Magic realm, inc., has developed a new fantasy board game. the company sold 15,000 games last year at a selling price of $20 per game. fixed expenses associated with the game total $182,000 per year, and variable expenses are $6 per game. production of the game is entrusted to a printing contractor. variable expenses consist mostly of payments to this contractor.required: 1-a. prepare a contribution format income statement for the game last year.1-b. compute the degree of operating leverage.2. management is confident that the company can sell 58,880 games next year (an increase of 12,880 games, or 28%, over last year). given this assumption: a. what is the expected percentage increase in net operating income for next year? b. what is the expected amount of net operating income for next year? (do not prepare an income statement; use the degree of operating leverage to compute your answer.)
