Assume a perfectly competitive market. Draw the average total cost, average variable cost, marginal cost, and marginal revenue curves for a good. Determine the profit-maximizing level of output given that the price of the good is above the minimum average variable cost but below the minimum average total cost. Is the profit at the chosen price point positive, zero, 0r negative? Shade the area representing profit. Assume a monopoly market. Draw the average total cost, marginal cost, marginal revenue, and demand curves for a good. At what price will the monopolist sell? What is the profit-maximizing level of output at this price? Shade the area representing profit.

    of output given that the price of the good is above the minimum average variable cost but
    below the minimum average total cost. Is the profit at the chosen price point positive,
    zero, 0r negative? Shade the area representing profit.
