- Consider the competitive market for sports jackets. The following graph shows the marginal cost (MC), average total cost (ATC), and average variable cost (AVC) curves for a typical firm in the industry. 72 16 AVC 16 24 40 QUANTITY (Thousards of jaats) For each price in the following tabie, use the graph to determine the number of jackets this firm would produce in arder to maximize its profie. Assume that when the price is exacty equal to the average variabie cost, the firm is indifferent between producing zero jackets and the proft-maximizing quandity. Also, indicate whether the fiem wil produce, shut down, or be indiferent between the two in the short run. Lastiy, determine whether e w make a prafit, suffer a loss, ar break even at each price.

True or False: If alternatively Mo's HookNLadder were a competitive firm and $160,000 were the market price for an engine, decreasing its price from $160,000 to $120,000 would result in a decrease in the production quantity, but an increase in total revenue.The figure below shows the supply and the demand for a good (left) and the cost curves of an individual firm in this market (right). Assume that all firms in this market, including the potential entrants, have identical cost curves. Initially, the market is in equilibrium at point A. Price 6 Cost 17 D 8 10 12 Quantity ATC O the price is $1.00 and the quantity sold is 6 units O the price is $3.00 and the quantity sold is 2 units O the price is $2.00 and the quantity sold is 2 units O the price is $2.00 and the quantity sold is 4 units Quantity Refer to the figure above. Suppose that the market has reached the long-run equilibrium. Then, due to news of the product's defects and recall, the demand falls by 2 units at each price. The market will tend toward the new long run equilibrium where
- Suppose that bicycles are produced by a perfectly competitive, constant-cost industryWhich of the following will have a larger effect the long-run price of bicycles: a government program to advertise the health benefits of bicyclingor (2) a government program increases the demand for steel, an input in the manufacture of bicycles that is produced in an increasing cost industry ? O. Option 1: shifts the demand curve out and increases the price. O. Option 2: shifts the supply curve up and increases the price O. Option 2: it shifts the demand curve up and increases the quantity. O. Option 2: shifts the supply curve up and increases the quantity.Consider the market for solar power. Assume the market is perfectly competitive and initially in long-run equilibrium; solar power sells for $.25 per kwh (kilowatt hour, a unit of power). Draw2graphs, oneto represent the market (supply and demand), and one to represent asingle firm (demand, marginal cost, and average cost curves). Assume a u-shaped average cost Show the equilibrium price and the quantity produced by the market (Q) and by each individual firm (q).Karim's HookNLadder is the only company selling fire engines in the fictional country of Alexandrina. Karim initially produced five trucks, but then decided to increase production to six trucks. The following graph gives the demand curve faced by Karim's HookNLadder. As the graph shows, in order to sell the additional fire truck, Karim must lower the price from $60,000 to $40,000 per truck. Notice that Karim gains revenue from the sale of the additional engine, but at the same time, he loses revenue from the initial five engines because they are all sold at the lower price. Use the purple rectangle (diamond symbols) to shade the area representing the revenue lost from the initial five engines by selling at $40,000 rather than $60,000. Then use the green rectangle (triangle symbols) to shade the area representing the revenue gained from selling an additional engine at $40,000.

- 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 levelof output given that the price of the good is above the minimum average variable cost butbelow the minimum average total cost. Is the profit at the chosen price point positive,zero, or 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 theprofit-maximizing level of output at this price? Shade the area representing profit.Genel Gönderiler Dosyalar Sınıf Not Defteri Odevler QUESTIVVS; Q-1-Firm A is operating in a perfectly competitive market in the short-run and producing good X.

- Return to Figure 9.2. Suppose P0 is 10 and P1 is 11. Suppose a new firm with the same LRAC curve as the incumbent tries to bleak into the market by selling 4,000 units of output. Estimate from the graph what the new firms average cost of producing output would be. If the incumbent continues. to produce 6,000 units, how much output would the two films supply to the market? Estimate what would happen to the market price as a result of the supply of both the incumbent firm and the new entrant. Approximately how much profit would each firm earn? Figure 9.2 Economics of Scale and Natural MonoployA firms marginal cost curve above the average variable cost curve is equal to the films individual supply curve. This means that every time a firm receives a price from the market it will be willing to supply the amount of output where the price equals marginal cost. What happens to the films individual supply curve if marginal costs increase?Suppose a farmer earns a larger profit than the "normal profit" by producing a special type of vegetable that becomes popular O other farmers arc likely to plant the same vegetable, pushing up the prevailing market price. O the firm will continue to carn its 'normal profits" far into tho future. O the farm's owners are likely to withdraw from the industry in order to retire carly. other farmers are likely to plant the same vegotablo, pushing down the prevailing market price.
