Firms ill a perfectly competitive market are said to be price takers that is, once the market determines an equilibrium price for the product, firms must accept this price. If you sell a product in a perfectly competitive market, but you are not happy with its price, would you raise the price, even by a cent?
Explain how the profit-maximizing rule of setting P=MC leads a perfectly competitive market to be allocatively efficient.
What two rules does a perfectly competitive firm apply to determine its profit-maximizing quantity of output?
graph shows the short run cot curve of a firm in a purely competitive market. Which of the following are true at he firm's profit maximizing output level? A. price exceeds MCB. Economic profit is 0C. MC = ATCD. New firms are likely to enter in long run
I need help with econ multiple hw questions asap! 56) In a perfectly competitive market, when will the process of entry and exit end for firms in the market? A. when marginal revenue is equal to average variable cost B. when economic profits are zero C. when price is equal to average variable cost D. when marginal revenue equals zero 55) Which of the following measures of cost is best described as “the increase in total cost that arises from an extra unit of production”? A. average total cost B. variable cost C. average variable cost D. marginal cost
Course: Microeconomics A given firm, which is part of a perfectly competitive market, would have following cost function: TCLR = 2X3 - 20X2 + 200XWhat will be its level of output (X) and long-run equilibrium price (P)? NOTE: TCLR is long run total cost function
Consider a perfectly competitive market. A firm is producing at a level where MR = MC and P > ATC.Draw the graph and clearly show the area that represents the firm’s profit or loss (and state which ofthe two it is). Describe what is likely to happen in the long run.
ASAP Does the state of mr=mc in a perfect competitive market mean that the firm is supposed to sell out no matter how much marginal cost they put? Because mr=mc occurs only if the product sells out 100% corresponing to the put marginal cost, right? I also know that the state is occured because the price in a competitive market is fixed, but i wondered if the state means also selling out completely.
Consider the perfectly competitive market for steel. Assume that, regardless of how many firms are in the industry, every firm in the industry is identical and faces the marginal cost (MCMC), average total cost (ATCATC), and average variable cost (AVCAVC) curves shown on the following graph. The following diagram shows the market demand for steel. Use the orange points (square symbol) to plot the 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 steel would be per ton. At that price, firms in this…
Which of the following is NOT a characteristic of long-run equilibrium for a perfectly competitive firm?Possible answersA) Price is greater than long-run average costB) Price is equal to long-run marginal costC) Economic profit is zeroD)The firm produces the output level at which long-run average cost is at its minimum
Describe how we can identify a competitive firm’s short-run supply curve.
a. Demonstrate what happens in the short run on both graphs when a new medical study shows soy beans to be an effective weight-loss supplement. On the market graph, you will shift a curve (or curves). On the firm's graph, use "Price 2" to draw a new price line for the firm. On both graphs, indicate the new equilibrium points with the points labeled B. b. Now, demonstrate the changes that get both graphs back to long run equilibrium. Use shift(s) for the market and "Price 3" for the firm. Indicate the new long-run equilibrium with the green points labeled C.
