- 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.The cost function for a firm is given by CQ) = 5 + Q If the firm sells output in a perfectly competitive market and other firms in the industry sell output at a price of $20, what price should the manager of this firm put on the product? What level of output should be produced to maximize profits? How much profit will be earned? As per your solution provided The profit is maximized: MC=MR=P C(Q) = 5+Q2 MC= dC/dQ = 2Q ...what is dC and dQ here??? and why dC/dQ = 2Q?? please assistThe market for drones is perfectly competitive. Assume for simplicity that fractions of everything, including firms, is possible. We have identical firms, each with a Total Cost curve of TC=341+q^2 and Marginal Cost curve MC=2q. Market demand is Q=627-2P. If the market price is $84, what is the short-run profit maximizing quantity for each firm?

- Consider an imperfectly competitive service provider, Muscat Automotive Repair Services (MARS), whose total cost of production is C = 30Q +0. 165Q2. Also, MARS faces two different market segments, A and B, whose demands can be linearly expressed as QA = 240 − PA and QB = 120 − 0.5PB . (Hint: the marginal cost is the slope of the total cost function). 4. If MARS decides to segment the market in accordance with the demands of groups A and B, find the profit-maximizing prices and quantities (PA, QA) and (PB, QB).5. What is the value of the consumer surplus for each group A and B, under this segmentation strategy?6. Draw the situation described in (4) and (5) above, clearly showing each group’s profitmaximizing price and quantity, and the areas that correspond to their consumer surpluses.7.
