A) $250

B) $500

C) $750

39) Refer to Table 12-2. How many pounds of apples should Margie sell to maximize her profit?

A) 300 pounds

B) added an equal amount to both total revenue and total cost.

C) added more to total revenue than it added to total cost.

D) maximized its profits or minimized its losses.

A) determine what the total revenue and total cost of production are

B) increase output

C) decrease output

D) lower its price to sell more

 

46) A perfectly competitive apple farm produces 1,000 bushels of apples at a total cost of $36,000. The price of each bushel is $50. Calculate the firm’s short-run profit or loss.
