2.My proposal
The firm attains its maximum revenue by selling 50 units. Therefore, I propose that the company should approve the 20% that the CEO demands provided that the firm makes sales of at least 50 units. In other words, the firm should maximize revenue by ensuring that MR = 0. For MR to be equal to zero, the firm must sell at least 50 units. In this regard, therefore, the firm will guarantee the CEO her proposed percentage provided that the firm makes a sale of at least 50 units.
