(a) By plotting the marginal revenue product, MRP corresponding to each level of labor , we get the imperfectly competitive seller's demand for labor curve as shown below:
(b) Product price is the key difference between a perfectly competitive market and an imperfectly competitive seller because under perfectly competitive market price is the same at all levels (which is given for all firms) and under imperfectly competitive firm ,they are the price maker therefore price differs at each level of output. Hence, option(A) is correct.

Orange Inc. sells cell phones in a perfectly competitive market in the short-run. Capital and labor are two resource factors used to produce the cell phones. Capital is fixed in the short-run but labor can vary. The market for hiring labor is a perfectly competitive market. Labor is measured in worker weeks. Each worker week costs $600 of wages and Orange Inc. can hire any number of worker weeks. Each cell phone is sold at a price of $200 and...
