Tlite and Brite produce lamps which they sell for $40.Tlite has fixed cost of $8000 less than Brite and average variable cost of $33, which is 10% more than Brite. Tlite has a break even output which is 15% less than Brite, and produces 25% less revenue than Brite. Tlite also makes $12000 less profit then Brite. Calculate the outputs of both the firms
