Max Profit = $197,750
with Price = p = $95
and output = x = 2,850
C(x) = 73000 -80x
p = 190-x/30
R=px = 190x -x^2/30
Profit = P=R-C
= 190x-x^2/30 - (73000-80x)
= 190x -x^2/30 -73000+ 80x
= 270x -x^2/30 -73000
take the derivative of P with respect to x, and set = 0
P'(x) = 270 -x/15 =0
x = 15(270) = 4050 = profit maximizing out put number of electric drills per month, which is less than 5000
p = 190-x/30 = 190-4050/30 = 190- 405/3 = 190-135 = $55 = profit maximizing price
max Profit
= 190x -x^2/30 -73000
= 190(4050) -(4050)^2/30 -73000
= 769500-546750-7300
=$149,750 = most Profit possible, per month
