Suppose that each firm in a competitive industry has the following costs: Total cost: TC = 50 + q2 Marginal cost: MC = q where q is an individual firms quantity produced. The market demand curve for this product is Demand:QD = 120 P where P is the price and Q is the total quantity of the good. Currently, there are 9 firms in the market. a. What is each firms fixed cost? What is its variable cost? Give the equation for average total cost. b. Graph average-total-cost curve and the marginal-cost curve for q from 5 to 15. At what quantity is average-total-cost curve at its minimum? What is marginal cost and average total cost at that quantity? c Give the equation for each firms supply curve. d. Give the equation for the market supply curve for the short run in which the number of firms is fixed. e. What is the equilibrium price and quantity for this market in the short run? f. In this equilibrium, how much does each firm produce? Calculate each firms profit or loss. Is there incentive for firms to enter or exit? g. In the long run with free entry and exit, what is the equilibrium price and quantity in this market? h. In this long-run equilibrium, how much does each firm produce? How many firms are in the market?
A firm in a competitive market receives 500 in total revenue and has marginal revenue of 10. What is the average revenue, and how many units were sold?
Firms ill a perfectly competitive market are said to be price takers that is, once the market determines an equilibrium price for the product, firms must accept this price. If you sell a product in a perfectly competitive market, but you are not happy with its price, would you raise the price, even by a cent?
If new technology in a perfectly competitive market brings about a substantial reduction in costs of production, how will this affect the market?

Suppose a firm is in a perfectly competitive market. 10 Price 9- 8 4.5³ 3.5 MC ATC AVC 123 4 5 6 7 8 Quantity Suppose currently price is $6, what will happen in the long run? O Nothing. The price is consistent with zero economic profits, so there is no incentive for firms to enter or exit the industry. O Individual firms will earn positive economic profits for now, which will entice other firms to enter the industry in the long run. O Individual firms will earn negative economic profits for now, which will cause some firms to exit the industry in the long run. O Because the price is below the firm's average variable costs, the firms will shut down.
