At cooly cola, we are testing the appeal of our new diet one cola. in a taste test of 250 randomly chosen cola drinkers, 200 consumers preferred diet one cola to the leading brand. assuming that the sample were large enough, the large-sample 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of cola drinkers that prefer diet one cola would be:

Suppose that the firm cherryblossom has an orchard they are willing to sell today. the net annual returns to the orchard are expected to be $50,000 per year for the next 20 years. at the end of 20 years, it is expected the land will sell for $30,000. calculate the market value of the orchard if the market rate of return on comparable investments is 16%.

Amonopolist’s inverse demand function is p = 150 – 3q. the company produces output at two facilities; the marginal cost of producing at facility 1 is mc1(q1) = 6q1, and the marginal cost of producing at facility 2 is mc2(q2) = 2q2.a. provide the equation for the monopolist’s marginal revenue function. (hint: recall that q1 + q2 = q.)mr(q) = 150 - 6 q1 - 3 q2b. determine the profit-maximizing level of output for each facility. output for facility 1: output for facility 2: c. determine the profit-maximizing price.$
