Example

• TR = 1400Q – 7.5Q2
• TC = Q3 – 6Q2+140Q+750

•   Find out the following
•   MC function
•   MR function
•   Profit function
•   Profit Maximization out put
•   Total profit
 MC = 3Q2 – 12Q+140
  MR = 1400-15Q
  Profit Function = 1400Q-7.5Q2 –(Q3-6Q2+140Q+750)
                       =-Q3-1.5Q2 +1260Q-750
 Out put = -3Q2 -3Q+1260 =0
        =-3(Q2+Q-420)=0
        Q=-20 Q = 20
 Take the second derivative
 = -6Q -3
  = -6*20-3 = -123<0
 Profit = -(20)3-1.5(20)2+1260(20)-750 =15850
