    Have you watched the free lectures on pricing? Our lectures are a complete course for Paper F5 and cover everything you need to pass the exam well.

    Please do not simply set test questions and expect an answer. You must have an answer in whichever book you found the question, so please say what problem you have having with the answer!!

    The price demand equation is P = a – 1/40Q
    For maximum demand, P = 0, therefore a = 1/40 x 100,000 = 2,500

    Since maximum profit is when Q = 42,000, the price must be P = 2,500 – 1/40×42000 = $1,450
