. Mr DIY is a new small scale palm oil supplier. There are many small scale palm oil suppliers in the market. The price of oil palm is solely determined by the market demand and supply. Describe the market characteristics of this industry. As Mr DIY is a new firm in the market, his firm is facing a problem of revenue lesser than the total variable costs. Illustrate the situation with an appropriate diagram(s). Evaluate the situation of this firm and provide one suggestion for the firm to sustain in the long run.
On the graph input tool, change the number found in the Quantity Demanded field to determine the prices that correspond to the production of 0, 6, 12, 15, 18, 24, and 30 units of output. Calculate the total revenue for each of these production levels. Then, on the following graph, use the green points (triangle symbol) to plot the results. Calculate the total revenue if the firm produces 6 versus 5 units. Then, calculate the marginal revenue of the sixth unit produced. The marginal revenue of the sixth unit produced is________. Calculate the total revenue if the firm produces 12 versus 11 units. Then, calculate the marginal revenue of the 12th unit produced. The marginal revenue of the 12th unit produced is_________.
Question 5: Perfect Competition Use the cost schedule below to answer the following questions about a price-taking firm who produces discrete units (there cannot be a half-computer in this world). ATC is average total cost, AVC is average variable cost and AFC is average fixed cost. Computers per Day Fixed Cost Variable Cost Total Cost Marginal Cost АТС AVC AFC Price $30 $0 $35 1 $30 $20 $30 $30 3 $30 $40 4 $30 $60 $30 $90 6. $30 $130 7 $30 $180 8 $30 $240 $30 $310 10 $30 $390 1. Fill out the schedule above. 2. Given the price information you've received, how many computers/day will the firm produce? What will be the economic profit (or loss) this firm receives? 3. If the firm is making a positive profit, do you expect it to persist in the long run? Why?

In this week’s discussion we focus on market competition and the power of firms to set prices. (a) Along with your textbook reading, review the videos, blog, and articles on market competition. Then respond to the following questions: If all the firms in an industry are charging the same price, is it fair to say that they are engaged in price collusion? To what extent might this be a plausible explanation? Are there any other possible explanations? What type of market structure do you think is more conducive to firms engaging in price-fixing? Why do you think the price-fixing situation in the case described went on for so long? (one paragraph) Click the link to review a recent price-fixing case on bread. (b) In your town or city try to find a local business that appears to enjoy some degree of monopoly power (it does not have to be a pure monopoly: one unique product and one seller). Briefly describe the nature of this business and explain some of the factors that give it monopoly…
