Due to presence of HOMEWORKLIB POLICY, I am answering one question.

Explanation: Under economies of scale, per unit costs fall as MC fall during production.

QUESTION 5 A monopolistically competitive firm will: maximize profits by producing where MR = MC. not likely earn an economic profit in the long run. shut down in the short run if price is less than average variable cost. all of the above. QUESTION 6 A monopolistic competitive firm is inefficient because the firm: earns positive economic profit in the long run. is producing at an output corresponding to the condition that marginal cost equals price. is not maximizing its...

7. Assume that the long-run production function can be expressed as Q-SKL? Where Q is quantity of output, K is the quantity of capital and L is the quantity of labor. If capital is fixed at 10 units in the short run then the short-run production function is: Q=10KL b. Q=50KL? Q=10L? d. 0=50L Q=500KL 8. For a linear total cost function: a. MC will be downward sloping b. MC = AVC c. AVC is upward sloping and linear d....
