1) There is a chemical factory that produces A ton of chemical products every day. The production cost of the known chemical is $\left(\frac{1}{2}A^2 - 50A + 50\right)$ per ton. and the selling price of the chemical is $\left(80 + \frac{1}{4}A\right)$ per ton. (i) What is the daily ton A of chemicals produced by the chemical plant to maximize its daily profit P? (Note: It is not necessary to verify the reasonable stagnation point of the first order derivative, let this stagnation point make the profit P the maximum value) (ii) What is the highest daily profit P?

Step 1
The profit function can be expressed as: P = A * (OS + VoS - V7) - C where C is the production cost per ton. Show more…

A company manufactures two items which are sold in two separate monopolies. The quantities q1 and q2 demanded by consumers, and the prices p1 and p2 (in dollars), of each item are related by p1 = 600 - 0.3q1 and p2 = 500 - 0.2q2. Thus, if the price for either item increases, the demand for it will decrease. The company's total production cost is given by C = 16 + 1.2g1 + 1.5q2 + 0.2q1q2. To maximize its total profit, how much of each product should be produced? Find the maximum profit. Be sure to show verification that you have found a maximum.

[Profit maximization] If the producer's cost function is TC(q) = 200q + 3.5q^2, and the demand function is p = 1200 - 6.5q where p is the selling price per unit. (a) What output q* maximizes its profit? (b) What is the profit-maximizing price, p*? (c) What is its maximal profit π*?
A manufacturer can produce at most 100 units of a certain product each year. The demand equation for the product is p = q^2 - 100q + 2100 and the manufacturer's average-cost function is c = 2/3q^2 - 50q + 15,000/q. Determine the profit-maximizing output q and the corresponding maximum profit. The profit-maximizing output q is. The maximum profit that corresponds to the profit-maximizing output is $.
