- In a competitive market, the current equilibrium price is $100 per unit. A firm that produces Q units of output in this market has a short-run Total Cost (TC) given by ?? = 1000 + 20? + 2?2. What is the marginal cost for this firm? How many units should the firm produce?Suppose you are a perfectly competitive firm producing computer memory chips. Your production capacity is 1000 units pe r year. Your marginal cost is P10 per chip up to capacity. You have a fixed cost of P10,000 if production is positive and P0 if you shut down. What are your profit-maximizing levels of production and profit if the market price is (A) P5 per chip, (B), P15 per chip, and (C) P25 per chip? For case (B), explain why production is positive even though profits are negative.1. A firm in a perfectly competitive industry has fixed costs of FC = 15, marginal costsof MC = 5 + 14q, and average variable costs of AVC = 5 + 7q.(a) If the price is $75, how much does the firm supply? (b) Does the firm continue to supply this quantity in the short-run? (c) Suppose there exists a standard market demand function from consumers(downward slopping). Please provide a logical discussion about how the marketachieves short-run equilibrium.

- 7. Short-run supply and long-run equilibrium Consider the competitive market for copper. Assume that, regardless of how many firms are in the industry, every firm in the industry is identical and faces the marginal cost (MC), average total cost (ATC), and average variable cost (AVC) curves shown on the following graph. The following diagram shows the market demand for copper. Use the orange points (square symbol) to plot the initial short-run industry supply curve when there are 10 firms in the market. (Hint: You can disregard the portion of the supply curve that corresponds to prices where there is no output since this is the industry supply curve.) Next, use the purple points (diamond symbol) to plot the short-run industry supply curve when there are 15 firms. Finally, use the green points (triangle symbol) to plot the short-run industry supply curve when there are 20 firms. If there were 20 firms in this market, the short-run equilibrium price of copper would be ___ per…The handmade snuffbox industry is composed of 100 identical firms each having short-run total costs given by , where q is the output per day.20.5105STCqq=++(a) What is the short-run supply curve for each firm?

At its present rate of output, Claude’s marginal cost is $65, average variable cost is $45, and average total cost is $67. To maximize his profit or minimize his loss in the short run, Claude should increase output reduce output but not to zero maintain the present rate of output shut down raise price 8. A price taker in a perfectly competitive industry is currently selling 6000 units per month at the market price of $8 per unit.
