- A firm in a perfectly competitive industry has patented a newprocess for making widgets. The new process lowers the firm’saverage cost, meaning that this firm alone (although still aprice taker) can earn real economic profits in the long run. a. If the market price is $20 per widget and the firm’s marginalcost is given by MC=0.4q , where q is the dailywidget production for the firm, how many widgets willthe firm produce? b. Suppose a government study has found that the firm’snew process is polluting the air and estimates the socialmarginal cost of widget production by this firm to be. If the market price is still $20, what is thesocially optimal level of production for the firm? Whatshould be the rate of a government-imposed excise tax tobring about this optimal level of production? c. Graph your results.Suppose that the firm operates in a perfectly competitive market. The market price of his product is$10. The firm estimates its cost of production with the following cost function: TC=10q-4q2+q3 A. What level of out put should the firm produce to maximize its profit? B. Determine the level of profit at equilibrium. C. What minimum price is required by the firm to stay in the market?Suppose that the firm operates in a perfectly competitive market. The market price of his product is $4. The firm estimates its cost of production with the following cost function: TC=50+20q-5q2+0.33q3 a. What level of output should the firm produce to maximize its profit? b. Determine the level of profit at equilibrium. c. What minimum price is required by the firm to stay in the market?
- The market for paperback detective novels is perfectly competitive. Market Demand is given by Q=393-7P. Market Supply is given by Q=3P-9. Suppose 55 units are bought to the market. Consider the Marginal Cost of production for these 55 units. What is the maximum Marginal Cost of production of these 55 units? Enter a number only, do not include the $ sign. Hint: 55 doesn't have to be the market quantity.The market demand for Gucci bags is given by the function P = 75 - 1.5Q. P is price per bag, and Q is output per time period. The market supply is given as P = 25 + 0.50Q. A typical competitive firm that markets this type of bag has a marginal cost of production of MC = 2.5 + 10q. a) Calculate the market equilibrium price for the bags as well as the output rate in the market. b) Calculate how much the typical firm will produce per time period at the equilibrium price. c) If all firms had the same cost structure, how many firms would compete at the equilibrium price computed in (a) above?Consider a market with demand given by Q=100-P. The market is perfectly competitive with 60 firms and all have same cost structure. They all have no fixed costs and a constant variable cost of USD 40. How do we get the market supply curve for this situation.
- A firm operates in a perfectly competitive market. The market price of its product is 4 birr and the total cost function is given by TC= 1/3 Q3 - 5Q2+20Q + 50, where TC is the total cost and Q is the level of output.a) What level of output should the firm produce to maximize its profit?b) Determine the level of profit at equilibrium.c) What minimum price is required by the firm to stay in the market?Can you help with parts d,e and f please? A perfectly competitive firm has the following total cost function: TC = 4,500 + 2q + .0005q2 where TC is total cost in dollars and q is the quantity of output produced. a. Assume this perfectly competitive market consists of 800 firms with cost structures identical to the one above. What is the equation for the market supply curve? Assume the market demand curve is: Qd = 5,600,000 – 400,000P where Qd is the quantity demanded in the market and P is the commodity’s price in dollars. b. What is the market’s equilibrium price? c. Assuming the market is in equilibrium, using marginal revenue and marginal cost determine the firm’s profit-maximizing quantity of output? What does the profit-maximizing firm’s total economic profit equal? Assume the total cost function above: TC = 4,500 + 2q + .0005q2 is associated with the short-run total cost function that corresponds to the minimum point on the long-run average total cost curve and this is a…A perfectly competitive industry has 150 identical firms. At a price of $8, the typical firm supplies 10 units of output, so the market quantity supplied is nothing units of output. (Enter your response as an integer.)
- Suppose that many small firms operating in the perfectly competitive market set-up. All firms are identical and have the total cost function c (q)= 40+8q+(q^2/10), where q is the individual firm’s production amount. The market inverse demand function is described as P= A - (Q/50), where A>0 is constant, and Q is the market quantity. In the short-run equilibrium, there are 78 firms in the market, and firm’s maximum profit is $22.5 a) find the short-run equilibrium price b) suppose that in the long-run, firms cost function is still the same C (q)= 40+8q+(q^2/10) (assume LR cost function has fixed component of 40) Find the long-run equilibrium number of firms? (Assume market demand in LR = market demand SR)Assume the market for tortillas is perfectly competitive. The market supply and demand curves for tortillas are given as follows: Supply curve: P = 5Q Demand curve: P = 120 - 10Q The short run marginal cost curve for a typical tortilla factory is: MC = 20q Assuming all tortilla factories are identical, calculate the following: Equilibrium price for tortillas: __1__ Profit maximizing short run equilibrium level of output for a tortilla factory: __2__ Given profit maximizing output as above, a tortilla factory is: __3__ Total number of tortilla factories: __4__ Producer surplus of a tortilla factory: __5__Consider the competitive market for titanium. 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 titanium. Use the orange points (square symbol) to plot the initial short-run industry supply curve when there are 20 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 30 firms. Finally, use the green points (triangle symbol) to plot the short-run industry supply curve when there are 40 firms. If there were 20 firms in this market, the short-run equilibrium price of titanium would be $_______ per pound. At that price, firms in this…
