- Consider a perfectly competitive market, where the current number of firms is 50. Each firm has one unit of capital and can product q(1, L) = √L units of output with one unit of capital at a cost v per unit, and L units of labor at a cost w per unit in the short-run. a) Derive each firm's total cost function, c(q). B) Find a firm's short-run supply curve, qs(p), and the industry short-run supply curve, Qs(p).Consider a perfectly competitive market, where the current number of firms is 50. Each firm has one unit of capital and can product q(1, L) = √L units of output with one unit of capital at a cost v per unit, and L units of labor at a cost w per unit in the short-run. a) Find a firm's short-run supply curve, qs(p), and the industry short-run supply curve, Qs(p). b) Given the market demand, = 10000 - 50p, and the industry short-run supply curve, find the short-run equilibrium price and quantity assuming that w = 1.Consider a competitive market in which the market demand for the product is expressed as P = 75 ‑ 1.5Q, and the supply of the product is expressed as P = 25 + 0.50Q. Price, P, is in dollars per unit sold, and Q represents rate of production and sales in hundreds of units per day. The typical firm in this market has a marginal cost of MC = 2.5 + 10q. Determine the equilibrium market price and rate of sales (output). Show your working. Determine the rate of sales (output) of the typical firm, given your answer to part (i) above. If the market demand were to increase to P = 100 ‑ 1.5Q, what would the new price and rate of sales in the market be? What would the new rate of sales (output) for the typical firm be?. Show your working If the original supply and demand represented a long‑run equilibrium condition in the market, would the new equilibrium (iii) represent a new long‑run equilibrium for the typical firm? Explain
- Suppose that many small firms operating in the perfectly competitive market set-up. All firms are identical and have the total cost function c (q)= 40+8q+(q^2/10), where q is the individual firm’s production amount. The market inverse demand function is described as P= A - (Q/50), where A>0 is constant, and Q is the market quantity. In the short-run equilibrium, there are 78 firms in the market, and firm’s maximum profit is $22.5 a) find the short-run equilibrium price b) suppose that in the long-run, firms cost function is still the same C (q)= 40+8q+(q^2/10) (assume LR cost function has fixed component of 40) Find the long-run equilibrium number of firms? (Assume market demand in LR = market demand SR)You are the manager of a firm that sells its product in a competitive market with market (inverse) demand given by P = 50 − 0.5Q. The market equilibrium price is $50. Your firm's cost function is C = 40 + 5Q2. Your firm's marginal revenue is Multiple Choice MR(Q) = 50 − Q. indeterminable based on the information in the question. MR(Q) = 10Q. $50.Suppose a firm operating in a perfectly competitive industry has costs in the short run given by: SRTC = 8 + ½q^2 and therefore MC = q. Assuming that the firm is a price-taker operating in a competitive market, derive an expression for the firm’s supply curve, (the profit maximizing output for the firm as a function of the market price, i.e., q^s = f(p). Assuming the firm is one of 100 identical firms in the industry, what is the short-run supply curve for the industry, i.e., Q^s = f(p)? If demand is given by Q^D = 1000 – 100p, what are the short-run equilibrium price, market quantity, and firm quantity? Is this a long-run equilibrium? [Hint: Calculate firm profit in the equilibrium.]
- Suppose that each firm in a competitive industry has the following identical costs:Total cost: TC = 25+0.25Q2,where Q is an individual firm’s quantity produced.The market demand curve for this product is as follow:Demand: P=60-0.095Q,where P is the price and Q is the total quantity of the good. Currently. (i) Identify each firm’s fixed cost, variable cost, and its marginal cost.(ii) Suppose that there are 10 firms in the market. Construct the market supply function in the short run. Determine the equilibrium price and quantity. (Hint: If each firm’s supply function is Qi= a+bP then the market supply Qm can be the aggregated supply at each price as Qm = Q1+Q2+Q3+...+Qi where Qi is each firm’s supply function.)Suppose that the firm operates in a perfectly competitive market. The market price of his product is$10. The firm estimates its cost of production with the following cost function: TC=10q-4q2+q3 A. What level of out put should the firm produce to maximize its profit? B. Determine the level of profit at equilibrium. C. What minimum price is required by the firm to stay in the market?Consider a competitive industry with a market demand curve of P = 252 – Q, where P is market price and Q is the quantity demanded in the market. Each firm in the industry has a cost function of TC = 196 + q2, if q > 0 where q is output of the individual firm (TC = 0 if q = 0). The market is initially in long-run equilibrium. The government decides to regulate the industry by issuing licences to all firms currently in the industry, and not to allow any further entry by other firms without a licence. That is, the number of licences is fixed, and entry requires that an existing licence holder sells their licence to the potential entrant, leaving the number of firms producing in the industry fixed. Subsequent to the introduction of this regulation, the market demand curve shifts to P = 432 – Q. What is the value of the licence?
- In a competitive market with identical firms, Group of answer choices an increase in demand in the short run will result in a new price above the minimum of average total cost, allowing firms to earn a positive economic profit in both the short run and the long run. firms cannot earn positive economic profit in either the short run or long run. firms can earn positive economic profit in the long run if the long-run market supply curve is upward sloping. free entry and exit into the market requires that firms earn zero economic profit in the long run even though they may be able to earn positive economic profit in the short run.In a purely competitive market at its long-run equilibrium, which of the following is not true? a The marginal benefit of the last unit of the product equals the marginal cost of producing that unit. b The maximum willingness of buyers to pay for the last unit of the product equals the minimum acceptable price for the seller of that unit. c Price equals marginal cost, and they are equal to the lowest attainable average cost of production. d The combined amount of consumer and producer surpluses is at its minimum possible.Suppose Firm X is a dominant firm in a market where the market demand is Q = 1200 -2p. Once Firm X sets its price, those small competitors set their prices a little lower so that they can always sell up to their capacity. Assume the small firms’ combined capacity is 100 units. Further assume Firm X’s marginal cost is 50. Answer the following questions. Let Q^D be the quantity produced by the dominant firm. Write down the residual demand function faced by Firm X. (Hint: Think about how Q and Q^D are related.) Find Firm X’s profit-maximizing price.
