If you are compensated $10 per ride, what customer load would you choose?

Marginal Cost is the change in costs due to the additional customer. Since marginal revenue is the price of $10, you will serve customers up to the point where MC > MR or you will serve 7 customers.

Suppose the number of firms you compete with has recently increased. You estimated that as a result of the increased competition, the demand elasticity has increased from –2 to –3, i.e., you face more elastic demand. You are currently charging $10 for your product. If demand elasticity is -3, you should charge [x].

An amusement park, whose customer set is made up of two markets, adults and children, has developed demand schedules as follows: The marginal operating cost of each unit of quantity is $5. Because marginal cost is a constant, so is average variable cost. Ignore fixed costs. The owners of the amusement part want to maximize profits.
