The figure shows a bakery's marginal and average cost curves, and its isoprofit curves. The bakery is a price-taker in a large bread market. Suppose the current market price is P₁. Based on this information, which of the following statements is correct? Price, Cost €6 (5 20 40 60 80 Quantity MC hoprofits AC 100 120 140 160 180 number of loaves Select one or more: a. The bakery would be better off raising its price up to its AC level. O b. The bakery would be minimising its loss at A. Oc. If the bakery is not yet in the market then it would not enter the market. d. If the bakery is already in the market, then it would always immediately exit the market because it is making a loss.
