Economic inefficiency exists when
A.
MR = MC.
B.
P = MC.
C.
P = MR.
D.
P > MC.
Answer : The answer is option D.
Economic inefficiency occur when price is greater than marginal cost. This means that at P > MC the economic inefficiency exist. Hence except option D other options are not correct. Therefore, option D is the correct answer.

Short-run equilibrium entailing economic loss is shown by: A) diagram a only. B) diagram b only. C) diagram conly. D) both diagrams a and c. 66. Refer to the above diagrams, which pertain to monopolistically competitive firms. A short-run equilibrium entailing economic profits is shown by: A) diagram a only. B) diagram b...
The long-run equilibrium condition for perfect competition is: a. Q = ATC = MR = MC. b. Q = AVC = MR = MC. c. P = ATC = MR = MC. d. P = AVC = MR = MC. Why do negative externalities like pollution result in inefficiency? a. Because producers will receive an unequal distribution of profits. b. Because producers artificially restrict their supply. c. Because producers manufacture more goods than people can afford to buy. d. Because...
For a perfectly competitive firm, when MC is less than MR, A. economic profits must be positive. B. the producer has an incentive to decrease output. C. the producer has an incentive to expand output. D. the producer has no incentive to change production
QUESTION 6 A perfectly competitive firm will maximize profit where: a. MC> MR b. MC<MR C. MR M d. MC MR
In the short run, a perfectly competitive firm is producing where MR-MC. At this output, P>AVC and P>ATC. This firm A) is making positive economic profits B) is making zero economic profits C) is making negative economic profits but should continue to operate D) is making negative economic profits and should shut down.
1. MR = MC=P holds for A. all firms B. monopoly C. monopolistic competition D. perfect competition 2. Consumer's surplus is A. demand price plus equilibrium price B. supply price above market price C. demand price plus supply price D. demand price less equilibrium price 3. In the short run, a monopolist may a. attract other firms into the industry b. upgrade technology c. incur loss d. charge the...
When a firm has the power to establish its price Select one: a. P = MR. b. P = MC. c. P > MR. d. P < MR.
Let P = price, MR = marginal revenue, MC = marginal cost, and ATC = average total cost. In monopolistic competition, which of the following most accurately describes the long-run equilibrium conditions for a firm? Group of answer choices P > ATC, MR = MC, and P > MC P > ATC, MR > MC, and P = MC P = ATC, MR = MC, and P > MC P = ATC, MR = MC, and P = MC P...
Refer to the figure below. MC c B ATC PRICE A Y х MR D NO P QUANTITY How much output will the monopolist produce in order to maximize profit? 00 ON OP
if a price searcher operates at MC=P, it will cause MC to exceed MR. please explain why this is this case with a graph.
