7. Claude’s Copper Clappers sells clappers for $65 each in a perfectly competitive market. At its present rate of output, Claude’s marginal cost is $65, average variable cost is $45, and average total cost is $67. To maximize his profit or minimize his loss in the short run, Claude should increase output reduce output but not to zero maintain the present rate of output shut down raise price 8. A price taker in a perfectly competitive industry is currently selling 6000 units per month at the market price of $8 per unit. Monthly total variable costs are $50,000 and total fixed costs are $20,000. Marginal cost is $8 per unit and rising. Economic profits a. are equal to zero b. are greater than zero c. are less than zero d. cannot be determined 9. Choose two (2) of the incorrect answers to multiple choice Question #7 (Claude’s Copper Clappers problem) and explain why they are incorrect.

: A firm sells its product in two… QuestionAsked Feb 17, 2019104 views A firm sells its product in two different markets. The inverse demand in market A is PA = 72 - 5QA and in market B, it is PB = 60 - 3QB. It has fixed costs of 72. Each unit it produces costs 12, i.e., marginal cost equals 12. To maximize profits, what quantities of output will be sold in each market and what will total profits be?

Demand and Supply equations of a particular market are as follows.Qd = 2100 – 7PQs = – 1200 + 5PWhere, Qd is the quantity demanded, Qs is the quantity supplied and P is the market price. By all means, this market is considered as a perfectly competitive market. The average cost information of a selected firm in this market is given below.AFC = 450/QAVC = (155Q + 2Q2)/Q a) Calculate the profit maximizing output level of the firm based on Marginal approach.b) Calculate the profit (in Rupees) at the profit maximizing output level.
