Consider a perfectly competitive market with many identical firms. Each firm has a long-run marginal cost function given by LRMC(y) = y ^2 + 1. We do not know the firms’ LRAT C function, but we know that at a quantity of 3 it is equal to LRMC. In other words: LRAT C(3) = LRMC(3). (a) Find an expression for an individual firm’s long-run inverse supply curve: this will be p as a function of y. Note that it will...
