- Suppose Jayden operates a handicraft pop-up retail shop that sells phone cases. Assume a perfectly competitive market structure for phone cases with a market price equal to $20 per phone case. The following graph shows Jayden's total cost curve. Jayden's profit is maximized when they produce a total of ____phone cases. At this quantity, the marginal cost of the final phone case they produce is ___, an amount ( greater or less)than the price received for each phone case they sell. At this point, the marginal cost of producing one more phone case (the first phone case beyond the profit maximizing quantity) is ____, an amount(greater or less)than the price received for each phone case they sell. Calculate the marginal revenue and marginal cost for the first seven phone cases they produce, and plot them on the following graph. Use the blue points to plot marginal revenue and the orange points to plot marginal cost at each quantity.arrow_forwardAssuming that the market for cigarettes is in perfect competition, what do allocative and productive efficiency imply in this case?
