Good Grapes is selling grapes in a purely competitive market. Its output is 5,000 pounds, which it sells for $5 a pound. At the 5,000-pound level of output, the average variable cost is $4.00, the marginal cost is $4.25, and the average total cost is $4.50 a pound. Should the firm increase output, decrease output, or not produce? Why? How should the firm determine the optimal level of output?
In a competitive market, the long-run demand is given by P = 20 - (0.01)*q Firms in the industry have as their cost structure the expression C = q3 - 5q2 + 10q. Determine: (a) equilibrium price b) Quantity produced-sold of the firm. c) What quantity is traded in the market? d) Over what time period does this market work? (short or long term?) e) What is the profit of the individual firm? f) What will be the behavior of the individual firm, will it exit or stay in the market?
Please answer all 1. Coldwater Bicycle Company operates its factories at capacity and holds a dominant market position in its home country. When it receives a premium priced order from a new customer in another country, it must decide whether to fill that order or continue to supply the full demand in its home market. When it decided not to completely fill the new order, it incurred Group of answer choices a. Sunk costs b. Average costs c. Opportunity costs d. Marginal costs 2. What might happen if a car dealership is awarded a bonus by the manufacturer for selling a certain number of its cars monthly, but the dealership is just short of that quota near the end of the month? Group of answer choices a. Potential buyers will lose buying power at the dealer b. It may sell the remaining cars at huge discounts to hit the quota c. It creates an incentive to sell cars from different manufacturers d. It would ruin the relationship between dealer and manufacturer…
Suppose a perfect competitive firm’s total cost curve and marginal cost curve are TC= Q2+ 4Q+100 Also suppose that the market equilibrium price is given as $20. A. Find equations for the firm’s fixed cost (FC), variable cost (VC), average total cost (ATC), average variable cost (AVC) and Marginal cost (MC). B. Find the output level that minimizes average total cost (ATC). C. Calculate the price below which a firm in the market will not produce any output (the shutdown price).
Assume that price is greater than average variable cost. If a perfectly competitive seller is producing at an output where price is $11 and the marginal cost is $14.54, then to maximize profits the firm should continue producing at the current output. produce a larger level of output. produce a smaller level of output. not enough information given to answer the question.
A firm sells its product in a perfectly competitive market where other firms charge a price of $110 per unit. The firm estimates its total costs as C(Q) = 70 + 14Q + 2Q2 How much output should the firm produce in the short run? What price should the firm charge in the short run? What are the firm’s short-run profits? What adjustments should be anticipated in the long run? Calculate the new optimal quantity and price.
Fruit market (a perfectly competitive market), the industry demand and supply of tomato (a homogenous product) is given by the following equations respectively: Qd = 50 − P Qs = 1 + 3P The typical firm’s total cost is given by the following equation: TC = 10 + 0.5Q2 + 5Q What is the profit maximizing level of output for the firm? How much profit is this firm earning? Show it graphically Is it short run or long run? Explain!
(Figure: Price and Quantity of Output and Table I) For simplicity, assume that there are only three firms in a perfectly competitive industry; their short-run supply curves are depicted in the graph. At a market price of $40, the industry output is ____.

The demand curve and supply curve for carpet cleaning in the local market are currently as follows: Demand: Q = 1,000 - 1OP Supply: Q = 640 + 2P The total cost function for the typical carpet cleaning company is: TC= 75 + 3q2 (so that FC=75, VC=3q2 and MC= 6q), where costs are measured in dollars and q is output per year. The market is perfectly competitive. First question how do I calculate the optimal output for the typical carpet cleaning firm in the short run and how many firms would operate in the market in the short run? Second, how would I compute operating profits and total profits for the typical firm in the short run. Based on the results so far, would you say that this market is at the long-run equilibrium?
Please no written by hand solutions 9. A firm produces a product in a perfectly competitive industry and has a short-run total cost function of SRTC= 50+ 4q+2q.

Assume the industry for flour tortillas in Denver is perfectly competitive. There are 200 firms. Seventy-five of the firms are “high-cost,” with short-run supply curves QHC = 5P. The other 125 are “low-cost,” with short-run supply curves QLC = 8P. Quantities are measured in dozens of tortillas and prices in dollars. Derive the short-run industry supply curve for tortillas QS. Assume the market demand curve for tortillas is given by QD = 10,000 − 625P. Find the market equilibrium price and quantity. At this price, how many dozens of tortillas are produced by the high- and low-cost firms, respectively? Determine total industry producer surplus at the equilibrium. Especially need the producer surplus.
