Multiple Choice QuestionOne worker can produce 7 units of output with a selling price of $2.60 each. Even though the firm competes in an imperfect market, business is so good that the manager hires a second worker who produces 6 units. To sell these six additional units the firm must lower the price to $2.40 each. Similarly, the boss hires a third worker who adds 5 units to total product, and these units are worth $2.20 each. But to sell these 5 units, the workers must take a 20-cent price cut on the 13 units produced by the first two workers, so the third worker's MRP is only $8.40. Calculate the total revenue for the firm with three workers.Multiple choice question.$46.80$43.20$32.60$39.60

Solution

To calculate the total revenue for the firm with three workers, we need to add up the revenue generated by each worker.

  1. The first worker produces 7 units, each sold for 2.60.So,thetotalrevenuefromthefirstworkeris72.60. So, the total revenue from the first worker is 7 * 2.60 = $18.20.

  2. The second worker produces 6 units, each sold for 2.40.So,thetotalrevenuefromthesecondworkeris62.40. So, the total revenue from the second worker is 6 * 2.40 = $14.40.

  3. The third worker produces 5 units, each sold for 2.20.So,thetotalrevenuefromthethirdworkeris52.20. So, the total revenue from the third worker is 5 * 2.20 = $11.00.

Adding these up, the total revenue for the firm with three workers is 18.20+18.20 + 14.40 + 11.00=11.00 = 43.60.
