Assume that in short-run equilibrium, a particular monopolistically competitive restaurant (Applebee's) charges $12 for each order of Chicken Parmesan and sells 52 orders per day. The average total cost (ATC) for those 52 orders is $10. How much revenue will the firm take in each day? $ What will be the firm's economic profit or loss on Chicken Parmesan? Next, suppose that other restaurants add/remove chicken parmesan from their menus (entry or exit occurs) and a long-run equilibrium is established. If the Applebees daily Chicken Parmesan orders remain at 52 units, what price will it be able to charge? $ What will be its economic profit or loss?

Suppose that a monopolistically competitive restaurant is currently serving 250 meals per day (the output where MR = MC). At that output level, ATC per meal is $10 and consumers are willing to pay $12 per meal. Instructions: Enter your answers as a whole number. a. What is this firm's profit or loss? $ b. Will there be entry or exit? (Click to select) Will this restaurant's demand curve shift left or right? (Click to select) In long-run equilibrium, suppose that this restaurant charges $11 per meal for 180 meals and that the marginal cost of the 180th meal is $8.

3. Is monopolistic competition efficient? Suppose that a firm produces wooden train engines in a monopolistically competitive market. The following graph shows its demand curve, marginal- revenue (MR) curve, marginal-cost (MC) curve, and average-total-cost (ATC) curve. Place a black point (plus symbol) on the graph to indicate the long-run monopolistically competitive equilibrium price and quantity for this firm. Next, place a grey point (star symbol) to indicate the minimum average total cost the firm faces and the quantity associated with that cost. ?

What did Harvard economist Edward Chamberlin say about the observation that a monopolistically competitive firm's average cost of production exceeds its minimum average total cost? Select one: O a. Chamberlin argued that this belief is incorrect. In his view, monopolistically competitive firms do not produce at a cost above their minimum average total costs. O b. Chamberlin argued that these higher costs represent the wastefulness of this market structure. O c. In Chamberlin's view, this is evidence that monopolistic competition uses society's resources inefficiently and in a fashion that merits government intervention. O d. According to Chamberlin, this cost difference represents the value consumers place on variety and having more choice.
