Application of Integral Calculus
The marginal cost function of a product is
given by: MC = 100 – 10x + 0.1x2,
where x is the output. Obtain the total and
the average cost function of the firm if the
fixed cost is $500.
Application of Integral Calculus
The marginal cost function of manufacturing
x shoes is 6+10x-6x2. The total cost for
producing a pair of shoes is $12. Find the
total and average cost function.

Application of Integral Calculus
The ABC Company Ltd. Has approximated the marginal
revenue function for one of its products by MR = 20x – 2x2.
The marginal cost function is approximated by MC = 81 –
16x + x2. Determine the profit maximizing output, the total
profit, the total revenue function, and demand function.

Find the producers’ and consumers’ surplus
under pure competition for the demand
function p = 36 – x2 and supply function
p = 6 + x2/4, where p is the price and x is
quantity.
