All firms in a perfectly competitive industry have a cost function given by: 10Q^2+200Q+2250. What is the profit maximizing quantity of each firm if the current market price is $500? What does each firms profit equal? Give typing answer with explanation and conclusion
a.Suppose a perfectly competitive firm can produce10000 bushels of corn a year at an output at which marginal revenue is equal to marginal cost. The market price of corn per bushel is $2. The firm's total costs per year are $30000 and fixed costs per year are $15000. Show and explain which of the following is true: In the short run, this firm should a) Produce 20000 bushels to try to increase economic profit. b) Produce 10000 bushels of corn because, although they are losing money, they are losing less than if they shut down. c)Shut down. d) Continue producing until the price of corn increases. b.A perfectly competitive firm, with MC=q operates in a market character,zed by the following market demand and supply conditions: Demand: Q=20000-100P Supply: Q=100P How much output does this competitive firm produce to maximize profit? Show your work graphically and algebraically.

Further, select whether the firm will choose to produce, shut down, or be indifferent between the two in the short run. (Assume that when price exactly equals average variable cost, the firm is indifferent between producing zero snapbacks and the profit-maximizing quantity of snapbacks.) Lastly, determine whether the firm will earn a profit, incur a loss, or break even at each price. □ Quantity (Snapbacks) BO 100 ▼ On the following graph, use the orange points (square symbol) to…
