- 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.Consider a competitive industry with a market demand curve of P = 120 - Q, where P is market price and Q is the quantity demanded in the market. In the short run there are 4 firms in the industry, and each firm has a total cost function of TC = 144 + q^2, where q is output of the individual firm. The short-run industry supply curve Qs is?Industry X has a market demand curve given by the equation P = 100 – Q/100, where P is the market price, and Q is industry-wide output.100 perfectly competitive firms currently operate in industry X. Each of these firms has a total cost function given by TC = 100 + 10q + q2, where q is the output of the individual firm, and thus MC = 10 + 2q. (a) Would any of the firms in industry X ever shut down in the short run? If so, what is the cut-off price required for firms to operate – Shut-down price? (b) What is the market output in the short run? What is the market price? How much do individual firms produce? Do firms earn economic profits? [Hint: you will first need to work out the industry supply curve.] *Note: when finding answers for this question online, they wrote to first find the AVC function for part a but I don't understand how they found that AVC function first- any help would be much appreciated!
