In the short run, at a market price of $20 per air freshener, this firm will choose to produce air fresheners On the preceding graph, use the blue rectangle (circle symbols) to shade the area representing the firm's profit or loss the firm chooses to produce the quantity you already selected. Note: In the following question, enter a positive number, even if it represents a loss. The area of this rectangle indicates that the firm's would be s thousand per day in the short run.

Consider the perfectly competitive market for titanium. Assume that, regardless of how many firms are in the industry, every firm in the industry is identical and faces the marginal cost ( MCMC ), average total cost ( ATCATC ), and average variable cost ( AVCAVC ) curves shown on the following graph
Initially, all firms in a perfectly competitive market are in long-run equilibrium. Assume that the market demand for the product produced by the firms in the market suddenly rises. Suppose the following graph shows the marginal revenue (MR) and marginal cost (MC) curves of a firm in this market at its initial long-run equilibrium, with an equilibrium price of P₁ and a profit-maximizing quantity of output of Q₁. Show the short-run effect of the increase in market demand on this firm by shifting the marginal revenue curve, the marginal cost curve, or both on the following graph. PRICE AND COST 2 MC Q₂ QUANTITY In the short run, the firm will respond by producing In the long run, some firms will respond by PRICE MR QUANTITY Supply MR Demand O Shift the demand curve, the supply curve, or both on the following graph to illustrate both the short-run effects and the new long-run equilibrium after firms finish adjusting to the increase in market demand.

Assume that a firm in a competitive market faces the following cost information. If the market price for this firm's product is $40, calculate the profit maximizing level of output for this firm using marginal analysis. It may help to create your own cost table and fill in columns for Marginal Cost and Average Total Cost based on the Total Cost information below. a.What is the level of profit for this firm at the profit maximizing output? b.To convince yourself that the quantity you found is indeed the profit maximizing quantity, try calculating what the profit would be at the next higher level of output. What did you find? c. What do you predict will happen in this market over the long run?
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 What is the firm Fixed Cost? Why? Also, use a graph to support your answer
Given the information presented in the following graph, which of the following is an accurate statement? Price Po 0 ATC AVC m 20 MC DD Quantity Because this is a perfectly competitive firm, the profit maximizing rule is not P = MC, Profits will be reduced by expanding production to the zone where MC exceeds MR. Because this is a perfectly competitive firm, the profit maximizing rule is not P = MR. Production should keep expanding because MR is always less than MC.
Suppose Madison operates a handicraft pop-up retail shop that sells rompers. Assume a perfectly competitive market structure for rompers with a market price equal to $20 per romper. The following graph shows Madison's total cost curve. Use the blue points (circle symbol) to plot total revenue and the green points (triangle symbol) to plot profit for rompers for quantities zero through seven (including zero and seven) that Madison produces.

Profit maximization using total cost and total revenue curves Suppose Caroline runs a small business that manufactures shirts. Assume that the market for shirts is a competitive market, and the market price is $20 per shirt. The following graph shows Caroline's total cost curve. Use the blue points (circle symbol) to plot total revenue and the green points (triangle symbol) to plot profit for shirts quantities zero through seven (inclusive) that Caroline produces. Caroline's profit is maximized when she produces______ shirts. When she does this, the marginal cost of the last shirt she produces is ______, which is (GREATER OR LESS) than the price Caroline receives for each shirt she sells. The marginal cost of producing an additional shirt (that is, one more shirt than would maximize her profit) is _____, which is (GREATER OR LESS) than the price Caroline receives for each shirt she sells. Therefore, Caroline's profit-maximizing quantity corresponds to the…
