You are an economic consultant for Jack, who farms, raw cotton in a perfectly competitive market. One day he gives you the following data at his present level of production output equals 1250 pounds, market price equals two dollars, total cost equals 7500, fix cost equals 56,25, marginal cost equals two dollars. The minimum of eight VC occurs at 1000 pounds at one dollar and the minimum of ATC at 16,000 pounds at four dollars.

The table below shows the short-run cost data of a perfectly competitive firm that produces plastic camera cases. Assume that output can only be increased in batches of 100 units. Quantity 0 It must fall. 100 200 300 400 500 600 It must rise to offset the increased cost. Total Cost Variable Cost (dollars) (dollars) $1,000 $0 1,360 360 1,560 560 1,960 2,760 4,000 5,800 Suppose the fixed cost of production rises by $500 and the price per unit is still $8. What happens to the firm's profit-maximizing output level? The firm will shut down. O It will remain the same. 960 1,760 3,000 4,800
3) A firm produces 50 000 boxes in one month and market price of these shoes is 10 TL per box. The total cost of the firm 400 000 TL and 20% of that cost is variable cost. Given that information a) Calculate the profit, ATC, AFC and AVC of that firm b) Suppose that market price is up to 11. The firm considers to increase its output to 55 000 when the price is 11 which however will lead to a total cost of 480 000. Should this firm increase its output and if so, why?
