2.10 The long-run average cost curve for an industry is repre- sented in the following graph. Add short-run average cost curves and short-run marginal cost curves for three firms in this industry, with one firm producing an output of 10,000 units, one firm producing an output of 20,000, and one firm producing an output of 30,000. Label these as Scale 1, Scale 2, and Scale 3, respectively. What is likely to happen to the scale of each of these three firms in the long run? Cost per unit ($) LRAC

“A firm that earns only normal profit is not covering all its costs.” Do you agree or disagree?
The following graph shows the short-run average total cost curves and the long-run average cost curve for a publishing firm. The five marked quantities indicate points of tangency between each short-run average total cost curve (SRATC) and the long-run average cost curve (LRAC); for example, Q1 marks the point of tangency between SRATC₁ and LRAC. The orange point on SRATC3 indicates the firm's current output level in the short run (3). COST PER UNIT SRATC₁ LRAC SRATC O Shut down SRATC3 QUANTITY OF OUTPUT O Shift to operate on SRATC₁ O Stay on SRATC3 O Shift to operate on SRATC₂ SRATC5 In the long run, if the firm decides to keep output at its initial level, what will it likely do? SRATC
