in a perfectly competitive market with a constant cost industry, there are currently 100 identical firms, each with the total cost function TC(Q) = Q^2 + 4Q + 36. The market demand is Q = 1800 – 50p. a. What is the price at the short-run equilibrium? What is the net profit/loss of each firm at this price? b. In the long run, how many firms will enter into /exit from the market?
Explain it early but correctly.

A) The firm supplies q = 5 units in the short run, making a loss. B) The firm supplies q = 10 units and makes zero economic profit. C) The firm supplies q = 10 and makes an economic profit. D) The firm supplies q = 5 units in the short run and makes an economic profit. E) The firm supplies q = 15 units in the short run and maximises the revenue.

Firms in the market for dog food are selling in a purely competitive market. A firm producing dog food has an output of 10,000 pounds of dog food, for which it sells for $0.50 a pound. At the output level of 10,000 pounds the average variable cost is $0.40, the average total cost is $0.70, and the marginal cost is $0.50. What do expect will happen in the long-run? Explain.
Why does a firm in perfect competition produce the quantity at which marginal cost equals price? In a perfectly competitive market, the price of a handsaw is $25. When a firm maximizes its profit, it produces 6 handsaws a day. Draw the marginal revenue curve. Label it. Draw the marginal cost curve that illustrates the profit-maximizing output. Label it. Draw a point at the profit-maximizing output and price. A firm produces the quantity at which marginal cost equals price because when marginal cost is greater than price, the firm O A. can increase economic profit by producing 1 less handsaw O B. is maximizing economic profit OC. is at its shutdown point O D. can increase economic profit by producing 1 more handsaw 50- 45- 40- 35 30- 25- 20- 15- 10- 5 0- 0 Price (dollars per handsaw) 10 Quantity (handsaws per day) >>> Draw only the objects specified in the question.
Assume that the market determined price is $10 in a perfectly competitive industry. A firm is currently producing 100 units of output. Average total cost is $8 while marginal cost is $8 and average variable cost is $6. Is the firm producing the profit-maximizing level of output? Why or why not? If not, what should the firm do?
