COURSE: MICROECONOMICS - PERFECT COMPETITION AND MONOPOLY (RESUBMITION QUESTION) We appreciate a perfect competition market where there is a predetermined limit number of firms with 20 total firms.Each has the cost function such that: CTi = qi2 + 4qi + 3 where qi indicates numbers of firms (i = 20) The demand in the market is: Q = 100 - 4pa) What is the individual supply of each firm?b) What is the supply of the whole industry?c) Obtain the market equilibriumIn the case where a new firm intended to enter a monopolist's market:(a) What kind of legitimate entry barriers can the firm face understanding the nature of the market it wishes to enter?b) What type of anticompetitive barriers could the firm already in the market present?
3. Suppose there are 100 identical manufacturers in a perfectly competitive industry, and the cost function of each manufacturer is STC = 0.1Q2 + Q + 10 . The cost is calculated in US dollars. a. Calculate the market supply function. b. Suppose that the market demand function is Q = 4000 – 400P, calculate the equilibrium price and output. c. Suppose the manufacturer is charged a tax of so.9 per unit of product, what about the new equilibrium price and output.

The city government is considering two tax proposals: • A lump-sum tax of $300 on each producer of hamburgers. • A tax of $1 per burger, paid by producers of hamburgers. Which of the following statements is true as a result of the lump-sum tax? Check all that apply. Marginal cost will remain unchanged. Average total cost will increase. O Average fixed cost will decrease. O Average variable cost will increase. Which of the following statements is true as a result of the per-burger tax? Check all that apply. Average total cost will remain unchanged. Marginal cost will increase. O Average variable cost will increase. Average fixed cost will decrease.
Henry Potter owns the only well in town that produces clean drinking water. He faces the following demand, marginal revenue, and marginal cost curves: 1 Demand: P=100-Q Marginal Revenue: MR 100-20 Marginal Cost: MC=10+Q On the following graph, use the blue line (circle symbol) to graph Mr. Potter's demand curve. Then, use the black line (cross symbol) to graph his marginal revenue (MR) curve. Next, use the orange line (square symbol) to graph his marginal cost (MC) curve. Finally, use the grey point (star symbol) to indicate the profit-maximizing price and quantity.

Mayor George Bailey, concerned about water consumers, is considering a price ceiling that is 10% below the monopoly price. At this new price, the quantity demanded would be units. At this quantity, the…
The graph below characterizes the cost structure for a firm in a perfectly competitive market. Calculate the firm's short-run profit.

A new production technology for making vitamins is invented by a college professor who decides not to patent it. Thus, it is available for anybody to copy and use. The TC per bottle for production up to 100,000 bottles per day is given in the following table. Output 25,000 50,000 75,000 100,000 TC $85,000.00 105,000.00 110,000.00 115,000.00 ATC Instructions: In part a, round your answers to 2 decimal places. In parts cand d enter your answers as a whole number. a. What is ATC for each level of output listed in the table? Enter your answers in the table above. b. Suppose that for each 25,000-bottle-per-day Increase in production above 100,000 bottles per day, TC increases by $5,000 (so that, for instance, 125,000 bottles per day would generate total costs of $120,000 and 150,000 bottles per day would generate total costs of $125,000). Are there economies of scale at all levels of output? (Click to select) c. Suppose that the price of a bottle of vitamins is $2.03. At that price, the…

Which cost curves; average fixed cost, the average variable cost, average total cost, and marginal cost would shift as a result of the lump-sum tax? Why? Which cost curves; average fixed cost, the average variable cost, average total cost, and marginal cost would shift as a result of the per-unit tax? Why?
1. Consider a monopoly firm with the total cost functionC(q) = 120 + 6qand the inverse market demandp(Q) = 90 − 2Q(a) What quantity will this firm sell? What price will they charge? Whatwill their profit be?(b) What would be the efficient quantity for this monopoly to produce?How much deadweight loss do they create?(c) Do you expect a firm with this sort of cost function to typically be amonopoly? Why or why not?2. Pretend it’s 2005 and people still use iPods.

Consider a firm that uses capital and labor as inputs and sells 5,000 units of output per year at the going market price of $10. Also assume that total labor costs to the firm are $45,000 annually. Assume further that the total capital stock of the firm is currently worth $100,000, that the return available to investors with comparable risks is 10 percent annually, and that there is no depreciation. Calculate the economic profit and accounting profit of this firm? Explain your answer.?
