Your company manufactures two models of stereo speakers, the Ultra Mini and the Big Stack. Demand for each depends partly on the price of the other. If one is expensive then more people will buy the other. If p1 is the price per pair of the Ultra Mini and p2 is the price of the Big Stack, demand for the Ultra Mini is given by q1(p1,p2)=200,000100p1+10p2q _ { 1 } \left( p _ { 1 } , p _ { 2 } \right) = 200,000 - 100 p _ { 1 } + 10 p _ { 2 } Where q1 represents the number of pairs of Ultra Minis that will be sold in a year. The demand for the Big Stack is given by q2(p1,p2)=150,000+10p1100p2q _ { 2 } \left( p _ { 1 } , p _ { 2 } \right) = 150,000 + 10 p _ { 1 } - 100 p _ { 2 } Find the prices for the Ultra Mini and the Big Stack that will maximize your total revenue. Round your answer to the nearest dollar.

Cobb-Douglas productivity functions have the form p(x,y)=kxay1ap ( x , y ) = k x ^ { a } y ^ { 1 - a } Where P stands for the number of items produced per year, x is the number of employees, and y is the annual operating budget. The numbers k and a are constants that depend on the situation we are looking at, with 0a10 \leq a \leq 1 . How many items will be produced per year by a company that has 150 employees and an annual operating budget of $80,000 if k=500k = 500 and a=0.4a = 0.4 (Round your answer to one significant digit.)
