If fixed costs are $750,000 and variable costs are 60% of sales, what is the break-even point (dollars)? a. $1,875,000 b. $300,000 c. $2,500,000 d. $1,250,000

Total cost is C = 8500 + 4.65q and total revenue is R = 5.15q, both in dollars, where a represents the quantity produced. a. What is the fixed cost? b. What is the marginal cost per item? c. What is the price at which this item is sold? d. For what production levels does this company make a profit? e. How much does the company make for each additional unit sold?

00:01 Hello students, it is the dependent cost function c of q equal to minus 0 .00002q square plus 4 .2q plus 5400 at q equal to 9000.
00:21 We know that marginal cost equal to d of total cost, total cost divided by d of quantity which is equal to t of tc divided by d of q.
00:48 So, therefore, the marginal cost mc equal to d divided by dq into minus 0 .00002q square plus 4 .2q plus 5400.
01:09 Now, differentiate this term with respect to q, so we get minus 0 .00002q plus 4 .2q...
