:
What would be the firm’s profit or loss at the following units of production sold:
12,000 units? 15,000 units? 20,000 units?
:
Rev = 180x
Cost = 126x + 540000
:
Profit = Rev - Cost
P = 180x - (126x + 540000)
When x = 12000 units
P = 180(12000) - (126(12000) + 540000)
P = 2160000 - 1512000 - 540000
P = $108,000 profit
:
When x = 15000 units, do same as above
