Dear Mr. John,
Could you please explain to me in 1st Question how they got Q=36000, in 2nd Question the answer in little more details as I did not get it.
Thanks in advance,

Have you watched the free lecture here on pricing?
Assuming you have, then you will have got the price/demand equation to be P = 305 – 0.00025Q
Therefore the marginal revenue – 305 – 0.0050Q
For maximum profit, MR = MC, so 305 – 0.0050Q = 125
So Q = 36,000.(If you have not watched the lecture, then you must.)

You will have to say which product you have the problem with.
The BPP answer is wrong with respect to X. The correct value for X is (300 x 3) + (200 x 7) = 2300.
(Again, I assume you have watched the free lecture on relevant costing because I cannot type out the whole lecture here 🙂 )
