A firm operates in a perfectly competitive industry. Suppose it has a total cost function of C = 25 + 0.25Q2. a) If the market price is $15, what is the firm’s profit-maximizing level of output? b) If the fixed costs increase from $25 to $75, what is the firm’s profit maximizing level of output? c) If the market price increases to $22, what is the firm’s profit maximizing level of output (with fixed costs at $75)?

1. If each competitive firm in an industry has the short run cost function TC=50+5q+q2, and MC=5+2q. The market price is $35. a. What is the profit maximizing output level for each firm? b. What are the profits? c. Now, suppose that fixed costs were $250 instead of $50, so the firm faces the short run cost function TC=250+5q+q2. How does this change affect the firm’s output decision and profits? Should the firm continue to operate in the short run?

Suppose there is a perfectly competitive industry where all the firms are identical with identical cost curves. Furthermore, suppose that a representative firm’s total cost is given by the equation TC = 100 + q2 + q where q is the quantity of output produced by the firm. You also know that the market demand for this product is given by the equation P = 900 - 2Q where Q is the market quantity. In addition, you are told that...

Numerical Example A representative firm is operating in a perfectly competitive industry. The firm’s total cost, TC, is given by the equation TC = 50 + 5q2 , where q is output. Based on this equation, the marginal cost, MC, is 10q. 1. If the output price is $100, what is the short-run profit-maximizing output? 2. How much profit does this firm make at that level of output? 3. What do you expect to happen in the market in the...

13. If Firm A operates in a perfectly competitive industry, with market price = $1,200/unit. If Firm A’s total cost function is given by TC(q)= 20q^2+ 80q + 200, find Firm A’s profit maximizing level of output. 14. Using the information from the above question: is the market in which Firm A is selling its output currently in long run equilibrium?

Suppose that 3W is a representative firm operating in a perfectly competitive industry. 3W's total cost of production is given by TC = 100+q+. a. If the output price is $400, what is 3W's short-run profit-maximizing level of output? b. What is 3W's profit at that price? Graph your results from a) and b). (Hint: your graph needs to include the MR, MC, and ATC curves.)
