Practice 7
Sketch, on the same diagram, graphs of the total revenue and total cost functions, TR =
−2Q2 + 14Q
TC = 2Q + 10
. (1) Use your graphs to estimate the values of Q for which the firm (a) breaks even;(b)
maximises profit.

a. breakeven
TR=TC
−2Q2 + 14Q = 2Q + 10
−2Q2 + 12Q–10 = 0
(-2Q+10) (Q-1)=0
Q=1
Q=5
TC = 2Q + 10 TC = 2Q + 10
TC = 2(1) + 10 TC = 2(5) + 10
TC=12 TC = 20
TR = 12 TR = 20

TC = 2(3,5) + 10
TC = 17
Profit = TR-TC
