5. profit maximization and shutting down in the short run suppose that the market for polos is a competitive market. the following graph shows the daily cost curves of a firm operating in this market. 0 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 18 20 50 45 40 35 30 25 20 15 10 5 0 price (dollars per polo) quantity (thousands of polos) mc atc avc for each price in the following table, calculate the firm's optimal quantity of units to produce, and determine the profit or loss if it produces at that quantity, using the data from the previous graph to identify its total variable cost. assume that if the firm is indifferent between producing and shutting down, it will produce. (hint: you can select the purple points [diamond symbols] on the previous graph to see precise information on average variable cost.) price quantity total revenue fixed cost variable cost profit (dollars per polo) (polos) (dollars) (dollars) (dollars) (dollars) 12.50 135,000 27.50 135,000 45.00 135,000 if the firm shuts down, it must incur its fixed costs (fc) in the short run. in this case, the firm's fixed cost is $135,000 per day. in other words, if it shuts down, the firm would suffer losses of $135,000 per day until its fixed costs end (such as the expiration of a building lease). this firm's shutdown price—that is, the price below which it is optimal for the firm to shut down—is per polo.

Ashop owner uses a reorder point approach to restocking a certain raw material. lead time is six days. usage of the material during lead time is normally distributed with a mean of 42 pounds and a standard deviation of four pounds. when should the raw material be reordered if the acceptable risk of a stockout is 3 percent?

Power plants that rely on coal increase the amount of sulfur dioxide that dissolves into the air, eventually increasing the acidity of precipitation. the higher acidity of rain and snow can damage forests by making it more difficult for plants to absorb minerals from the soil. the equations below provide information about the market demand and supply of electricity. there is a constant marginal external cost of $25 per unit of electricity.d: qd= 200 – 2ps: qs=p – 10what quantity of electricity satisfies allocative efficiency in this market? a. 60b. 70c. 50d. 43.3
