- What is the equilibrium or profit-maximizing quantity of production for a perfectly competitive firm?arrow_forwardThe market structure of perfect competition has a lot of ideal qualities–hence the name perfect. For example, perfectly competitive firms are productively efficient, and perfectly competitive markets are allocatively efficient. It is, however, difficult to find many examples of perfectly competition in the real world. Perfect competition is really a benchmark against which we compare other market structures in the real world. How much actual competition occurs in perfectly competitive markets? Some make the claim that there is actually no competition between firms in a perfectly competitive market. Do you agree or disagree with this claim? What is your reasoning?arrow_forwardCan you explain to me why in the short run, firms only use variable cost to determine whether or not to shut down.arrow_forward
- Based on the picture, explain what happens to the level of output. Describe your answerarrow_forwardLisette owns a bakery. If she expands the size of her bakery but her average total cost of producing bread remains unchanged in the long run, what is Lisette experiencing?arrow_forwardIn long-run equilibrium, all firms in the industry earn zero economic profit. Why is this true?arrow_forward
- What two lines determine whether a firm is making positive or negative or zero profits?arrow_forwardDo fixed costs affect perfectly competitive firm’s output decisions in the short run? Briefly explain your answer. Are there fixed costs in the long run? Do fixed costs affect perfectly competitive firm’s output decisions in the long run? Explain your answers briefly.arrow_forwardWhy do a firm's profit disappear in the long run?arrow_forward
