Explanation of Solution
In the above diagram, point A shows the initial equilibrium in both the short run and long run. A decrease in demand for paper would shift the demand curve leftward which led to a decrease in price and quantity in the short run. Therefore, short-run supply falls that shift supply curve to the leftward. As a result, price increases and attain a new equilibrium where both the short-run supply curve and long run supply curve intersect the demand curve.
The new representative firm’s
Introduction:
A perfectly competitive firm’s average total cost curve and average variable cost curve are U-shaped, and the price line is horizontal which means the firm can sell as much as output at a given price. The firm attains equilibrium at the intersection of the average total cost curve, marginal cost curve, and marginal revenue curve (Price line). Short-run equilibrium is determined at the intersection of the short sun
