- Listen Which market is most likely to be considered a competitive market? Pharmaceuticals Cable TV Phone Apps DiamondsTrue/False A perfectly competitve firm's supply curve is its marginal cost curve above the minimum average variable cost.The following graph plots daily cost curves for a firm operating in the competitive market for fitness trackers. Hint: Once you have positioned the rectangle on the graph, select a point to observe its coordinates. PRICE(Dollars pertracker) 100 90 70 60 50 40 20 10 0 0 MO ATC AVC 50 60 70 80 10 20 30 40 QUANTITY (Thousands of trackers per day) 90 100 Profit or Loss In the short run, given a market price equal to $45 per tracker, the firm should produce a daily quantity of trackers. On the preceding graph, use the blue rectangle (circle symbols) to fill in the area that represents profit or loss of the firm given the market price of $45 and the quantity of production from your previous answer. Note: In the following question, enter a positive number regardless of whether the firm earns a profit or incurs a loss. The rectangular area represents a short-run thousand per day for the firm.
