A firm in perfect competition faces the demand function P = $40. This implies that it: can sell any quantity at $40 a unit |can sell some quantity at prices higher than $40 a unit Owill have the incentive to "cut" the market and sell at less than $40 a unit none of the above When the demand function is given by P = $51, the marginal revenue: is less than the price |is greater than the price because the demand is flat |is equal to the price because all units are sold at the same price can never be equal to the price

Glowglobes are produced by identical firms in a perfectly competitivemarket. There are 22 firms in the market. Each firm's Total Cost functionis TC=473+2q+q^2 and Marginal Cost function is MC=2+2q. Marketdemand is Q=485-P. What is the quantity produced by each firm in the short-run?
In a perfectly competitive market, the market demand and supply curves are given by Q, = 1000 - 10P, and Q, = - 600 + 30Pg. A single firm operating in the market would face a demand curve that is perfectly elastic at a price of $ (enter your answer as an integer).

For a representative producer, the long-term marginal cost is given by LMC=9Q2−20Q+50LMC=9Q2−20Q+50 and the long-term total cost function is LTC=3Q3−10Q2+50QLTC=3Q3−10Q2+50Q Assume that the price on the market right now is SEK 50. a) How much profit or loss does the producer make in the initial situation? b) Describe in detail what will happen in the market and why c) What will the equilibrium price be? d) how much will our producer produce at market equilibrium?

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, 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 theprofit-maximizing level of output at this price? Shade the area representing profit.
