Homework Answers
a) 
.No if the price fell slightly
the firm will not go out of the market because in the short run the
firm will continue to produce if the price is above the AVC and
below the ATC i.e. the firm will be facing only the variable
cost.
b) True, as the firm will produce at a point where the marginal cost and the marginal revenue are equal, at this point the output will be less and price will be higher.

There is a tendency for economic profit in all competitive industries to go to zero. Question 25 options: a) True b) False If the market price in a competitive market is $10, and a firm's marginal cost (MC) is given by MC = 0.50Q, where Q is units of output, this firm should produce 20 units of output to maximize profit. Question 14 options: a) True b) False As entrepreneurs move resources into and out of industries seeking higher profit...

In the long run, the monopolistic competitive firm produces where P=LRATC, and earns zero economic profit. Suppose P = $5, and the monopolistic competitive firm is producing 100 units per day. What is total cost?

A perfectly competitive, profit maximizing firm earns zero economic profit in the long run. The firm’s total cost is: TC = a + bQ2. Use only the cost curve given. Determine mathematically the level of output the firm will produce in the long run. Show mathematically if this amount differs from the amount of output the firm would produce in the short run. Explain why a perfectly competitive firm earns zero economic profit in the long run.

Draw a diagram below that shows the short run profit maximizing output for a competitive firm at a market price of S10 producing an output of 20 that leads to a profit of $40. 4. 5.

If a perfectly competitive firm is producing at the P MC output and realizing an economic profit, at that output Multiple Choice marginal revenue is less than price. marginal revenue exceeds ATC ATC is being minimized total revenue equals total cost

24. In a competitive industry the market price of output is $24. A firm is producing that level of output at which average total cost is $30, marginal cost is $25, and average fixed cost is $5. In order to maximize profit (or minimize losses), the firm should a. increase output b. decrease output but keep producing. c. leave output unchanged. d. shut down 25. In long-run competitive equilibrium, a. economic profit is zero. b. P LMC. c. P LAC....

Identify/draw the area showing total profit at the level of output selected in #11. (1 point) OT SHARE 13. In the long run, if the firms stays in the market, it will produce (more, less) as price (decreases, increases), and the economic profit eventually becomes (positive, zero, negative).

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...

Which of the following is true of a profit-maximizing competitive firm in the short run? The firm produces at the point where price is equal to marginal cost. The firm produces at the point where average cost is at its minimum point. The demand curve faced by each firm in the industry is downward sloping. The firm always makes a zero economic profit. The firm suffers a deadweight loss.
