Question:

Draw a graph similar to panel (a) of Figure 13.5, showing the effect of installing Just Walk Out technology in a convenience store that had previously used a conventional checkout process with cash registers and cashiers. Assume that the technology causesa decline in both the fixed cost and the marginal cost of selling a quart of milk. Your graph should show the changes in the store’s cost curves, in its profit-maximizing price and quantity, and in the area representing the store’s profit. Assume for simplicity that quarts of milk are the only product the store sells.
