- Suppose a perfectly competitive firms demand curve is below the ATC curve. Explain the conditions under which a firm continues to produce in the short run. Based on the table above, if the competitive equilibrium price $14 a) what is the profit maximizing output for this firm? b) What is the maximum profit the company can make?Question: In a perfectly competitive market, what is true about the long - run equilibrium? Options: A) Firms earn economic profits in the long run B) Price equals marginal cost for all firms C) There are significant barriers to entry for new firms D) Firms produce at the point where marginal revenue equals marginal cost Note:- Please avoid using ChatGPT and refrain from providing handwritten solutions; otherwise, I will definitely give a downvote.

The market has 1,000 identical producers and Table 1 shows the market demand schedule for toys. At what market prices would the firm shut down temporarily? What is the market price of a toy in long-run equilibrium? How many firms will be in the toy market in the long run? Explain your answer.
- Show the competitive firm in long run equilibrium and describe productive and allocative efficiency. Demonstrate what happens to equilibrium price and quantity with an increase in market demand. Can the firm make economic profit in the short run? What about the long run?A perfectly competitive firm faces the short-run cost schedule shown in Table 1. A) Calculate average total cost (ATC=TC/Q), marginal cost (MC=∆TC/∆Q) and marginal revenue (MR=∆TR/∆Q) for each level of output. The price per unit of output is £16. B) Plot ATC, MC and MR on a graph and mark the profit-maximising output. At what output is profit maximised? C) How much profit/loss is made at the optimum level of output?QUESTION 1 A perfectly competitive firm has the following total cost function: Total output Total Cost 0 20 1 30 2 42 3 55 4 69 5 84 6 100 7 117 How much will the firm produce if the price of the production the market is Rs. 14 per unit? How will it change its output if price rises to Rs. 16 per unit? For the toolbar, press ALT+F10 (PC) or ALT+FN+F10 (Mac).
- Unit 10 - Competition - Microeconomics The market for coffee near Sarbucks stores is perfectly competitive (all firms are price takers). Graph the long-run market equilibrium for coffee and for Sarbucks as an individual firm in this market in spaces below. Make sure to identify the market S&D, firm S&D, and firm ATC and AVC curves. How much profit is the firm making? Discuss with your group why this profit is synonymous with being in a long-run equilibrium. Now suppose that coffee shop coffee is a normal good and income goes up. Starting from the diagram in (1), show and discuss with your group how the market will adjust towards a short-run equilibrium and then return to a long-run equilibrium. What happen to the market price and quantity in the short-run? What happens to individual firm output and the number of firms in the short-run? What is the profit in the short-run? What happen to the market price and quantity in the long-run? What happens to individual firm output…Using the Diagram above, answer the following questions: (c) Suppose the market price of the good in the short-run is $9 per unit. What do you know about this firm’s short-run profits, TR, TC, FC, VC, and level of production given this information? What do you predict will happen in the long-run in this market? (Hint: describe verbally, with numerical reference points, what you know about these different measures.)In the short-run equilibrium of a competitive marketwith identical firms, if new firms are getting readyto enter, what are the relationships among price P,marginal cost MC, and average total cost ATC?a. P > MC and P > ATC.b. P > MC and P 5 ATC.c. P MC 5 and P > ATC.d. P MC 5 and P 5 ATC.
