A firm produces two products A and B. The total cost function of producing “x” items of product A and “y” items of product B is TC = 2x2 + y2 – xy – 49x + 425. Find the number of each type that should be produced to minimize the total cost if the firm is committed the producing 21 items in total.
Given,
And x + y = 21
=> y = 21 - x
TC will be minimum when MC = 0
The firm should produce 14 units of product A and 7 units of product B.
Minimum TC =
X = 14 units and Y = 7 units.
