In Problem 5, the market demand decreases and the demand schedule becomes: If firms have the same costs set out in Problem 5, what is the market price and the firm’s economic profit or loss in the short run? Problem 5 The market for paper is perfectly competitive and 1,000 firms produce paper. The table sets out the market demand schedule for paper. The table in the next column sets out the costs of each producer of paper. Calculate the market price, the market output, the quantity produced by each firm, and the firm’s economic profit or loss.

If there were 20 firms in this market, the short-run equilibrium price of titanium would be $_______ per pound. At that price, firms in this industry would________ (operate at a loss/ shut down/ earn zero profit/ earn a positive profit). Therefore, in the long run, firms would ________ (enter/exit/ neither enter nor exit) the titanium market. Because you know that competitive firms earn ________ (zero/ negative/ positive) economic profit in the long run, you know the long-run equilibrium price must be $_____ per pound. From the graph, you can see that this means there will be ______ (10/ 15/ 20) firms operating in the titanium industry in long-run equilibrium.

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…
