- Ajax Cleaning Products is a medium-sized firm operating in an industry dominated by one large firm—Tile King. Ajax produces a multiheaded tunnel wall scrubber that is similar to a model produced by Tile King. Ajax decides to charge the same price as Tile King to avoid the possibility of a price war. The pnce charged by Tile King is $20,000. Ajax has the following short-run cost curve: TC=800,0005,000Q+100Q2 Compute the marginal cost curve for Ajax. Given Ajaxs pricing strategy, what is the marginal venue function for Ajax? Compute the profit-maximizing level of output for Ajax. Compute Ajaxs total dollar profits.For each of the following characteristics, saywhether it describes a perfectly competitive firm, amonopolistically competitive firm, both, or neither.a. sells a product differentiated from that of itscompetitorsb. has marginal revenue less than pricec. earns economic profit in the long rund. produces at the minimum of average total cost inthe long rune. equates marginal revenue and marginal costf. charges a price above marginal costYou are hired as a consultant to a monopolisticallycompetitive firm.

- You are a profit-maximizing firm. Suppose there are two types of customers (50% of 1 type, 50% of the other) who shop in your specialty clothing store. Consumers of type R will pay __B= $80__ for a coat and __C= $ 60__ for pants. Consumers of type S will pay __D= $60__ for a coat and __E= $ 75__ for pants. Your firm faces no competition and but it does pay for the clothing, __F=$30__ per coat and __G= $ 50__ per pair of pants, i.e. MCcoat = __F= $30__ and MCpants= __G= $ 50__. You can’t price discriminate. You offer the same prices to all your customers.Suppose instead that you only offer a bundle of one coat and one pair of pants (which we would call a suit.) What is the profit-maximizing price to charge for the suit?Answer: Price for suit = $_______You are a profit-maximizing firm.

- For market failure unit (market power). In the long run graph for monopolistic competition, firms are no longer earning abnormal profit due to low barriers to entry as there are more similar goods on the market, lowering demand, causing them to earn normal profits, however, shouldn't that cause MR to be equal to AR (demand curve), similar to the normal profit in perfect competition? Why is MR less than AR here when it is earning normal profit?\IV hat is true of a monopolistically competitive marketin long-run eqUilibrium?a. Price is greater than margi nal cost.b . Price is equal to marginal revenue.c. Firms make positive economic profits.d. Firms produce at the minimum of average total cost.Look at the chart below for Billy's Bats who sells products in a competitive monopolistic market Output 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 Total Cost 60 64 72 84 100 126 154 In the short run, what would Billy's Bats likely produce A 8 or fewer units B 10 units C More than 10 units D Not enough information given to determine
