Presentation transcript:

Think Break #10 You work for UWEX and have data on several farms in your seven county district You look at all farms with similar sized milking parlors and a similar number of workers You calculate the average production per cow as the number of cows varies among the farms Use these data in the table to recommend the optimal milk output and herd size

Think Break #10 Fill in the missing MC’s Cows Milk cwt FC VC TC MC 10000 20 4800 67000 77000 13.96 40 9640 134000 144000 13.84 60 14490 201000 211000 80 19320 268000 278000 100 24100 335000 345000 120 28824 402000 412000 14.18 140 33488 469000 479000 14.37 160 38096 536000 546000 14.54 180 42624 603000 613000 14.80 200 47060 670000 680000 15.10 (VC = $3350/cow) Fill in the missing MC’s If the milk price is $14/cwt, what is the optimal milk output and farm size?
