1 ) The total revenue function:
R ( x ) = 98 x,
where x is the number of units produced.
2 ) The marginal revenue:
R` ( x ) = 98 ( or $98 ).
3 ) The total cost:
C ( x ) = 23 x + 262,500
4 ) The marginal cost:
C ` ( x ) = 23 ( or $23 )
5 ) The total profit:
P ( x ) = 98 x - ( 23 x + 262,500 ) = 98 x - 23 x - 262,500
P ( x ) = 75 x - 262,500
The marginal profit:
P ` ( x ) = 75 ( or $75 )
6 ) If 0 ( zero ) units are produced:
C ( 0 ) = 23 * 0 + 262,500 = $262,500
R ( 0 ) = 98 * 0 = 0
P ( 0 ) = 75 * 0 - 282,500 = - $282,500 ( There is no profit. Company looses $282,500 ).
