The cost for each game (leasing, electricity, maintenance, and so on) is $4,000 per year. The entrepreneur will run the arcade, but instead of paying herself a salary, she will collect profits. She has received offers of $100,000 to sellher building and a $20,000 offer to manage a rival’s arcade. She recognizes that a normal return on a risky investment such as the arcade is 20 percent. a. As a profit maximizer, how many games should she order?
