- The minimum price at which a firm would produce in the short run rather than shut down immediately is the point at which price is equal to marginal cost price equals the minimum point on its average variable cost curve. O price is equal to average total cost O total revenue is equal to total costThe owner of Tie-Dyed T-shirts, a perfectly competitive firm, has hired you to give him some economic advice. He has told you that the market price for his shirts is $12 and that he is currently producing 200 shirts at an AVC of $10 and an ATC of $14. What do you recommend the owner do in the long run? O expand O operate O exit continue at current capacity O shut downSuppose solar panel manufacturing is an industry subject to significant economies of scale, and there are currently three solar panel manufacturers all with identical costs. If the demand for solar panels is 5 times the quantity produced at the bottom of the long-run average cost curve, which of the following is most likely to happen to the solar panel manufacturing industry in the long run? O The number of solar panel manufacturers will increase O The price of solar panels will increase O The fixed costs of manufacturing solar panels will increase The quantity supplied of solar panels will decrease
- You learn that a firm's average total costs (ATC) and average variable costs (AVC) are exactly equal. What does that mean? O Marginal cost is zero O ATC and AVC must be equal to zero O Average fixed costs (AFC) are zero O Economic profit is positive O Economic profit is negativeThe owner of Tie-Dyed T-shirts, a perfectly competitive firm, has hired you to give him some economic advice. He has told you that the market price for his shirts is $12 and that he is currently producing 200 shirts at an AVC of $10 and an ATC of $14. What do you recommend he do in the short run? O shut down continue at current capacity O operate O exit O expandThe company XYZ produces chairs and its costs are given in the table below. Variable Quantity Total Costs Variable Costs Fixed Costs Value 30 $3,600 $2,400 $1,200 In the short run, should this company shut down if the price of the chair is $95/unit? a. Yes, because the average total cost is higher than the price. b. Yes, because the average variable cost is higher than the price. O c. No, because the average total cost is higher than the price. d. No, because the average variable cost is lower than the price.
- The owner of Tie-Dyed T-shirts, a perfectly competitive firm, hires you to give him economic advice. He tells you that the market price for his shirts is $15 and that he is currently producing 200 shirts at an AVC of $10 and an ATC of $20. What would you recommend that he do? O a. Tell him that you cannot make any recommendations until you know what his fixed costs are. O b. Continue producing in the short run, as his loss from production is less than his fixed costs, but exit the industry in the long run if there are no changes in economic conditions. Oc Shut down in the short run, as he is incurring a loss, and leave the industry in the long run, if there are no changes in economic conditions. O d. Continue to produce in the short run, even though he is earning a loss, and expand production in the future hoping to increase market share and total revenue.Price and costs (dollars) 20 16 12 8 4 0 5 10 MC ATC 20 15 Quantity (per day) The figure above shows short-run cost curves for a perfectly competitive firm. If the price of the product is $8, in the short run the firm will Select one: O a. incur an economic loss O b. earn an economic profit O c. earn a normal profit O d. None of the provided answers is correct because more information is needed to determine the firm's profit or lossA firm is producing the profit-maximizing amount of output when it is producing where its curve intersects its curve. Select one: total cost; total revenue O average total cost; average variable cost O marginal cost; average total cost O marginal cost; marginal revenue O marginal cost; average variable cost
- In the short-run, if the marginal cost of a firm in a competitive industry is upward sloping while itsaverage variable cost is downward sloping, what can you say about slope of average total cost?For cases, A through F in the following table, would you (1) operate or shut down in the short run and (2) expand your plant or exit the industry in the long run? A B C D E F Total revenue 1,000 2,500 4,000 7,500 7,500 7,500 Total cost 1,400 1,500 5,500 7,000 7,500 8,000 Total fixed cost 300 1,000 500 2,500 2,500 2,500A strawberry farmer, operating ih a perfectly competitive market, is currently producing 99 packs of strawberries. The market price for a pack of strawberries is $6 a pack. The marginal cost of producing one more pack for the farmer is $5. What is the marginal revenue the farmer will receive from producing his 100th pack of strawberries? (Hint: If you aren't sure what marginal revenue means, look it up before choosing an answer) O $0.06 O $6 O $1 O $100
