- Suppose a profit maximizing firm in a perfectly competitive market currently pays their employees $20 per hour. When their most recently hired employee began working at the firm, their hourly production increased by 5 units. What price must they sell their product for?Is a firm that satisfies the immediate needs and wants of target markets always doing what’s best for its consumers in the long run?For each price in the following table, calculate the firm's optimal quantity of units to produce, and determine the profit or loss if it produces at that quantity, using the data from the graph to identify its total variable cost. Assume that if the firm is indifferent between producing and shutting down, it will produce. (Hint: You can select the purple points [diamond symbols] on the graph to see precise information on average variable cost.)

In this case, the firm's fixed cost is $44,000 per day. In other words, if it shuts down, the firm would suffer losses of $44,000 per day until its fixed costs end (such as the expiration of a building lease). This firm's shutdown price-that is, the price below which it is optimal for the…
