Recall the assumptions: The market for calculators is a perfectly competitive industry facing typical U-shaped ATC, AVC, and MC cost curves. Demand is linear and has a downward slope. The industry is filled with many homogeneous firms. Using a side-by-side graph that depicts both the market (on the left) and a representative firm (on the right), graphically depict what will happen to (a) P (price), (b) Q (market output), (c) q (representative firm's output), and (d) π (representative firm's profit) when the market moves from the original short run equilibrium (SRE) with positive profits you depicted in Question 1 to a new long run equilibrium (LRE).

On a graph for a representative firm in a perfectly competitive industry, depict the three cost curves AVC, ATC, and MC (assume typical U-shaped cost curves). Now assume the market price, P, is such that it intersects the upward-sloping portion of MC above ATC. Graphically depict the short-run equilibrium q (representative firm's output) and π (representative firm's profit) under this price scenario Given the situation you graphically depicted in Question 4, please state the level of economic profits (positive, zero, negative) of this representative firm and explain why this is the case.
A competitive firm O Has the market power to compete effectively. O Confronts a downward-sloping firm demand curve. O Is large enough relative to the market to be taken into account by competitors. OIs a price taker.
Depict on a graph a perfectly competitive market with a negative externality. Utilise the graph to cleary highlight and discuss the problems associated with the negative externality.[hint: focus on the quantity difference between the market equilibrium and the socially desirable equilibrum] now consider what happens if the market consolidates and becomes a monopoly (there is no need to depict this on a graph). Do you think the obesity and diabetes will increase or decrease? [hint: focus on the quantity difference betweeen a monopoly and perfectly competitive market]
Breifly explain what "playing the yield curve" means.
Let's tackle each part of the question step by step:1. **Monopoly Market:** A) To find the profit-maximizing output and price, we first need to find the monopolist's marginal revenue (MR) function. MR is the derivative of total revenue (TR) with respect to quantity (Q). TR is simply the product of price (P) and quantity (Q). \[TR = P \times Q = (120 - Q) \times Q = 120Q - Q^2\] Taking the derivative of TR with respect to Q: \[MR = \frac{dTR}{dQ} = \frac{d(120Q - Q^2)}{dQ} = 120 - 2Q\] Setting MR equal to marginal cost (MC) to maximize profit: \[MR = MC\] \[120 - 2Q = 20\] \[100 = 2Q\] \[Q = 50\] Now, substitute $Q = 50$ into the demand function to find the price: \[P = 120 - Q = 120 - 50 = 70\] So, the profit-maximizing output is 50 units, and the price is $70. B) To find the total profit, we need to subtract total costs from total revenue: \[TR = P \times Q = 70 \times 50 = 3500\] \[TC = 20Q 200 = 20(50) 200 = 1000\] Total profit: \[Total\ Profit = TR - TC = 3500 - 1000 = 2500\]2.…
