This is when the objective of the firm is achieving as high a total revenue as possible and occurs when marginal revenue is equal to zero, as shown on the graph. Another objective of a firm may be profit satisficing, where a firm makes a reasonable level of profit that satisfies its stakeholders without maximising profit. Examples of this in the leisure market may include businesses that have only just set up, as they perhaps do not have the work force to maximise profits yet and instead settle for a satisfying level of profit.

Despite scouting for smaller opportunities, a first round of $250 million funding may not be sufficient for Brazos to invest in any more than a few firms which gives them limited scope for diversification. This places greater pressure on a first time fund and in particular, Brazos’ motivation to add value by simply promoting organic growth in cash flow and operational efficiency in the hope of enhancing industry scale. Additionally, the existence of dependable cash flow and management make it easier to acquire debt financing and increase leverage which suits a first time fund. Furthermore, Brazos’ previous relationships and experience in the market allowed it to mitigate aspects of first fund bias which inhibit the entry of many prospective VC firms into the industry. Brazos’ GTT method is one of its points of differentiation which appear limited in its application to a variety of firms outside the ‘family-owned business’ model.

The project’s cost of capital is the rate of return necessary to satisfy all of the firm’s investors. We discount a project’s cash flows by its risk- adjusted cost of capital, which is a weighted average (WACC) of the cost of debts, preferred stock, and common equity, adjusted for the project’s risk and debt capacity.

In the short run firms may not increase their profits because the cuts in prices but if they achieve this in long run they may experience maxim profits. However the directors try to imply polices which do not always maximize the profits their objective is to satisfy the owners by getting some profit and growing the company in order to receive bigger market share to influence prices and quantity produced. I think that the managers should firstly try to grow the company and work for normal profit and maybe in long run obtain super normal profits. In short run they try to achieve lots of other objectives regardless profit
