- Since a perfectly competitive firm can sell as much as it wishes at the market price, why can the firm not simply increase its profits by selling an extremely high quantity?4) Explain why a firm should continue to operate in the short run so long as market price is greater the firm's average variable cost at the profit-maximizing level of output.Suppose Martha's Muffin Mart operates in a perfectly competitive market and is producing its profit-maximizing level of output. Suppose further that at this level of production, Martha's average total cost of producing a muffin is $1.70, average variable cost is $1.25, and marginal cost is $1.60. Over time, profits in the muffin market will_________, everything else held constant. Select One: A) remain unchanged B) Decrease C) Increase
- Q3: a. If a competitive firm is making loss in the short run, and it is selling a (100) units of a good at S.R(9). To be known that the AVC is S.R(10). What should the firm decide? If the quantity produced changed from 1 to 2, the total cost changed from 64 to 80 and the price is 40. b. What is the total revenue? c. What is the marginal cost?A Milton company works in perfect competition market, its total cost curve in short run is given in this function:TC = 200 − 4Q + 0.5Q2a. What output level should the firm produce to maximize profit? knowing that average revenue is $10.b. What is the firm profit at this level of output?Start from a market with perfect competition. For a representative producer, the long-term marginal cost is given by LMC=9Q2−20Q+50LMC=9Q2−20Q+50 and the long-term total cost function is LTC=3Q3−10Q2+50QLTC=3Q3−10Q2+50Q Assume that the price on the market right now is SEK 50. a) How much profit or loss does the producer make in the initial situation? b) Describe in detail what will happen in the market and why c) What will the equilibrium price be? d) how much will our producer produce at market equilibrium?

Its total cost function is TC(q)= 4q^2 + 8. The market demand function is Q(p) = 800 - 15p, and there are 40 identical firms in the market. A. What is a firm's short-run supply function? Will it ever decide to shut down? Explain. And what is the market supply function? B. Suppose there are 40 identical firms in the market. What is the equilibrium price, p*? What is the equilibrium quantity supplied by each firm, q*? What is each firm's equilibrium profit? Will there be more entry into the market? Why? C. Repeat b, but with 80 firms this time. Label your results with superscript ** D. Repeat part b, but with 280 identical firms now. Label your results by superscript ***. Part E. Compare your results in parts b - d. Explain why the increase in the number of firms affects the results in that manner. What should happen to profit eventually as the number of firms keeps increasing? And when this happens to profit,…
