A local pizza shop has hired you as a consultant to help it compete with national chains in the area. Because most business is handled by these national chains, the local shop operates as a price taker. Using historical data on costs, you find that short-run total costs each day are given by STC = 10 + q + 0.1q^2, where q is daily pizza production. a. What is this pizza shop’s short-run supply curve? b. If the market price is $5.00, what is the pizza shop’s daily production quantity and profits? c. Suppose the pizza shop wants to know the lowest price such that it can break even (i.e., maintaining a net profit of zero). Please help the firm find this price
