Consider a market where two firms produce the same product, and compete by choosing the price to charge consumers. There are no capacity constraints and no fixed costs. Consumers purchase from the firm that charges the lowest price, Pmin Aggregate demand is given by Q(Pmin) = 600 – 30pmin. Both firms have marginal costs of c = 15. What is the aggregate quantity produced in this market? And what price do consumers pay? (a) p₁ = = 15, p2 = 20, Q = 150 (b) P1 = P2 = 15, Q = 150 (c) P₁ = P₂ = 20, Q = 0 (d) p₁ = 10, P2 = 15, Q = 300 (e) None of the above options is correct.
Suppose a perfectly competitive market with 5 firms in the market. Each firm has supply characterized by P(q)=MC(q)=2+q/2. If 160 units were transacted in total, what was the market price?

The market demand and supply function for Pizza in New Town were: Qd = 10,000 – 100P Qs = - 2,000 + 100P A. Determine the equilibrium price and quantity of the Pizza. B. Plot the market and demand curves, label the equilibrium point E, and draw the demand curve faced by a single Pizza shop in this market on the assumption that the market is perfectly competitive. Show also the marginal revenue of the firm on the figure. C. If the total cost function of the firm is TC = 500 + 2Q + Q2, determine the price-quantity combination that will maximize the firm’s profit. D. Determine the profit. What adjustments should be anticipated in the long run?
Assume that a competitive firm has the total cost function: TC=1q3−40q2+820q+1900TC=1q3-40q2+820q+1900 Suppose the price of the firm's output (sold in integer units) is $650 per unit. Using tables (but not calculus) to find a solution, what is the total profit at the optimal output level? Please specify your answer as an integer.
Consider a competitive industry with a market demand curve of P = 121 – Q, where P is market price and Q is the quantity demanded in the market. In the short run there are 4 firms in the industry, and each firm has a total cost function of TC = 25 + 6q + q2, where q is output of the individual firm. In the long-run market equilibrium what is the number of firms in the industry? Group of answer choices 26 15 5 110 21

In competitive markets, there are many small firms with each firm unable to influence the market price. Suppose company ABX operates in the wheat market. The company produces and markets wheats at a Price = $20 per container. The firm’s total costs are given as: TC = 50 +2Q + 3Q2 Find the Firm’s marginal cost? Show your steps, including graphs.

Suppose that there are two types of firms in a perfectly competitive market. Firms of type A have costs given by CA(q) = 30q2 + 10q. Firms of type B have costs given by CB(q) = 50q2 + 10. ( dCA dq = 60q + 10 and dCB dq = 100q). There are 60 firms of type A and 100 firms of type B. Derive the individual firm supply functions for each type of firm and What is the range of prices in which some firms produce but others do not? Are there prices at which no firms produce Why?
