Suppose there are 10 firms in this industry, each of which has the cost curves previously shown. On the following graph, use the orange points (square symbol) to plot points along the portion of the industry's short-run supply curve that corresponds to prices where there is positive output. (Note: For the graphing tool to grade correctly, you must plot these points in order from left to right, starting with the point closest to the origin. You are given more points to plot than you need.) Next, place the black point (plus symbol) on the graph to indicate the short-run equilibrium price and quantity in this market. Note: Dashed drop lines will automatically extend to both axes.

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_________.

Suppose the imaginary company of Panthera is a small, Reno-based American apparel manufacturer specializing in athleisure. The following table presents the brand's total cost of production at several different quantities. Fill in the remaining cells of the following table. Quantity Total Cost Marginal Cost Fixed Cost Variable Cost (Pairs) (Dollars) (Dollars) о 120 1 210 2 270 3 315 4 380 5 475 6 630 (Dollars) (Dollars) Average Variable Cost (Dollars per pair) Average Total Cost (Dollars per pair) On the following graph, plot Douglas Fur's average total cost (ATC) curve using the green points (triangle symbol). Next, plot its average variable cost (AVC) curve using the purple points (diamond symbol). Finally, plot its marginal cost (MC) curve using the orange points (square symbol). (Hint: For ATC and AVC, plot the points on the integer; for example, the ATC of producing one pair of boots is $210, so you should start your ATC curve by placing a green point at (1, 210). For MC, plot the…
Demand for microprocessors is given by P = 35 – 5Q , where Q is the quantity of microchips (in millions). The typical firm’s total cost of producing a chip is Ci = 5qi, where qi is the output of firm i. a) Does the typical microchip firm display increasing, constant, or decreasing returns to scale? What would you expect about the real microchip industry? In general, what must be true about the underlying technology of production for competition to be viable?
The following diagram shows the market demand for steel. Use the orange points (square symbol) to plot the short-run industry supply curve when there are 20 firms in the market. (Hint: You can disregard the portion of the supply curve that corresponds to prices where there is no output since this is the industry supply curve.) Next, use the purple points (diamond symbol) to plot the short-run industry supply curve when there are 40 firms. Finally, use the green points (triangle symbol) to plot the short-run industry supply curve when there are 60 firms. PRICE (Dollars per ton) 80 72 Supply (20 firms) 64 58 Demand 48 Supply (40 firms) 40 32 2 24 16 8 ° 0 120 240 360 480 600 720 840 960 1080 1200 QUANTITY OF OUTPUT (Thousands of tons) Supply (60 firms) ? If there were 60 firms in this market, the short-run equilibrium price of steel would be $ Therefore, in the long run, firms would Because you know that perfectly competitive firms earn be $ per ton. At that price, firms in this industry…
Illustrate to the right, a graph showing a company being profitable in a competitive market in the Long Run selling its product at Market Price (MP*) based on its Average Variable Cost (AVC) and Average Total Cost (ATC) and Marginal Cost (MC). Identify each key point on the graph. Observe the Short - Run Loss information illustrated in the graph to the right. With respect to Price (P*"), Average Variable Cost (AVC), Average Total Cost (ATC), Marginal Revenue (MR), and Marginal Cost (MC), what assumption would you make if the firm was selling its product at P What would happen if this were to continue in the long run? Is there a Shut Down point? ** ? Notice that MR = P
(This is a single question with five parts to the answer. I would appreciate help with all five parts if possible. Image screenshot of the original question with the formulas more easily readable than can be identified here is attached) Tech firms produce goods and services from labor and energy. The total cost in dollars to produce y amount of goods and services for each firm j is cj(yj) = yi2. There are 100 identical tech firms which all behave competitively. What is the individual supply of technological goods and services? What is the market supply of technological goods and services? Suppose the demand curve for these goods is D(p)=200-50p. What is the equilibrium price and quantity sold? How much is the total surplus of this economy? Now suppose that the industry makes a one-time investment for $K amount of dollars to innovate in a new technology of production that allows every firm to reduce its cost of production to a 1/4 fraction of the previous cost. What is the new total…
Suppose the short-run production function for a restaurant producing a pack of food is given by: Q = 3L – 0.312 Where Q is the number of packs of food produced and L is the amount of labour used. If the cost of a unit of labour is ¢6 and the unit price of a pack of food produced is ¢10, a) what is the amount of labour the restaurant should employ in order to maximize profit. b) How much profit is made?

The following graph plots the market demand curve for ruthenium. Use the orange points (square symbol) to plot the initial short-run industry supply curve when there are 10 firms in the market. (Hint: You can disregard the portion of the supply curve that corresponds to prices where there is no output since this is the industry supply curve.) Next, use the purple points (diamond symbol) to plot the short-run industry supply curve when there are 20 firms. Finally, use the green points (triangle symbol) to plot the short-run industry supply curve when there are 30 firms.
