Using diagrams derive a long-run market supply curve for 1)a constant-cost industry, 2)a decreasing-cost industry.
Illustrate and explain the shape of the Long Run Industry Supply Curve for a Decreasing Cost Industry.
Consider the graphs of a constant cost industry and a perfectly competitive firm within it. Initially, the industry is in long‑run equilibrium at point E, then demand shifts from Demand1 to Demand2. Answer the questions where P is the price, MR is the marginal revenue, AR is the average revenue, MC is the marginal cost, SRATC is the short‑run average total cost, and LRAC is the long‑run average total cost. Manipulate both of the graphs to reflect the adjustments that yield the long‑run equilibrium.
Firm Aleph operates in a perfectly competitive market in a constant-cost industry and is earning negative economic profit. Why might Firm Aleph continue to operate despite earning negative economic profit? Explain. Draw correctly labeled side-by-side graphs for Firm Aleph and the market it operates in. Label the axes and all of the following: Market price (PE) and market quantity (QE) The firm's quantity of output (Qe) The firm's average total cost (ATC) Completely shade the area of the firm's total revenue. Identify whether the following increase, decrease, or remain constant as the market moves to long-run equilibrium: Market equilibrium quantity Market equilibrium price Assume the product that Firm Aleph produces has a positive externality. Draw the marginal social benefit (MSB) on the market graph from part (b). Will the unregulated market produce more or less than the socially optimal quantity? Shade the area of deadweight loss caused by the externality, when the market is…
