COST AND REVENUE

Cost
• Cost is defined as the money expenditure incurred by the producer to
purchase (or hire) factors of production and raw materials to produce
goods and services.
Types of cost
• (a) Fixed cost - fixed cost is defined as the expenditure, on hiring or
purchasing of fixed factors/ inputs, which are compulsory and has
nothing to do with the amount of production of the good or service
• (b) Variable cost - variable cost is the expenditure on variable
factors/inputs, such as labour, which can be changed.
• (c) Explicit cost - Explicit cost is defined as the money expenditure
incurred by the producer on both fixed and variable factors of
production and raw materials etc
• (d) Implicit cost - implicit cost is the cost of self supplied factors.
TOTAL, AVERAGE & MARGINAL COST
• Total Cost (TC) = Total Fixed Cost + Total Variable Cost
• Cost Function C(x) = F +V𝒙
• Average Cost (AC) = Total Cost/Total Output
• Marginal cost (MC) = △TC/ △Q
REVENUE
• Revenue is defined as the amount a person receives by selling a
certain quantity of the commodity
• Revenue = Price of the Commodity × Quantity of the Commodity
• Total Revenue = Price × Quantity or TR = P × Q
• Revenue Function
𝑹(𝒙) = 𝒑𝒙
AVERAGE AND MARGINAL REVENUE
• Average Revenue = Total Revenue/Quantity sold
• AR = P × Q/Q = P
• Average Revenue and Price of the commodity are one and the same.
• MR = △TR/ △Q
• Profit = Total Revenue – Total Cost
• Profit is maximized when MR=MC
• Assume that fixed costs is Rs. 850, variable cost per item is Rs. 45, and
selling price per unit is Rs. 65. Write, i. Cost function
• ii. Revenue function
• iii. Profit function
• I Cost Function = Variable cost + Fixed cost = 45𝒙 + 850

• ii. Revenue function = 65𝒙

• iii. Profit function = R(𝒙) – TC(𝒙) = 65𝒙 – (45𝒙+850) = 20𝒙 – 850


• A company produces and sells a product and fixed costs of the
company are Rs. 6,000 and variable cost is Rs. 25 per unit, and sells
the product at Rs. 50 per unit.
• i Find the total cost function.
• ii Find the total revenue function.
• iii Find the profit function, and determine the profit when 1000 units
are sold.
• iv How many units have to be produced and sold to yield a profit of
Rs. 10,000?
• TC=6000+25 𝒙
• ii. TR= 50 𝒙
• iii. P= 50 𝒙 -(6000+25 𝒙)=25 𝒙 -6000 P =25×1000-6000=19,000
• iv. P =10,000
10,000 = 25 𝒙 -6,000
𝒙 = 16000/25 𝒙 = 640 units
• Cost function of a company is 6 𝒙2 + 5 𝒙 +100. Calculate the marginal
cost function.

• If, Demand Function is D = 160- 0.0025x and Cost function is C = 15x +


0.0025x2, Find the profit revenue-maximizing output level
• R = D* 𝒙
• Revenue Function = (160 – 0.0025 𝒙)* 𝒙 = 160 𝒙 – 0.0025 𝒙2 C
• At the level of profit maximizing, MC = MR

• MR = 160 – 2*0.0025 𝒙 = 160 – 0.005 𝒙


• MC = 15 + 2*0.0025x
• MR = MC
• 160 – 0.005 𝒙 = 15 + 0.005 𝒙
• 160 – 15 = 0.005 𝒙 + 0.005 𝒙
• 0.01 𝒙 = 145
• 𝒙 = 145/0.01
• 𝒙 = 14,500 Units
