Q7.A company man function, where a variable cost manufactures wristwatches for which p = 1500 – 3x represents the demand function, where p is the price per unit. Cost price involves initially a fixed cost of Rs.38400 and a cost of Rs.420 per watch. Find at what level of production the company expects to recover its cost.

Solution :



Q8.The fixed cost of a new product is Rs.35000 and the variable cost per unit is Rs.500. If the d function is p = 5000 – 100x, find the breakeven value(s).

Solution :



Q9.A company has a fixed cost of Rs.10000 and the cost of producing one unit of its product is Rs.50. If each unit sells for Rs.75, find the breakeven value. Also, find the values of x for which the company always results in profit.

Solution :



Q10.The price of selling one unit of a product when x units are demanded is given by the equation p = 4000 – 2x. The fixed costs of the product are Rs.20000 and Rs.1484 per unit as the cost of production. Find the level of sales at which the company can expect to cover its costs.

Solution :
