Question-5

Read the case study carefully and answer any four out of the following questions:

A telephone company in a town has 500 subscribers on its list and collects fixed charges of 300 per subscriber per year. The company proposes to increases the annual subscription and it is believed that for every increase of 1 one subscriber will discontinue the service.

If x be the annual subscription then the total revenue of the company after increment will be:
1. R(x) = -x² + 200x + 150000
2. R(x) = x² - 200x - 140000
3. R(x) = 200x² + x + 150000
4. R(x) = -x² + 100 x + 100000
To find maximum profit we put
1. R'(x) = 0
2. R'(x) > 0
3. R'(x) < 0
4. R''(x) = 0
How much fee the company should increase to have maximum profit?
