1. There is an industry consisting of 12 firms, each with total cost function given by TC(q)3q² - 2q +867, where the fixed costs are non-sunk. The demand for the industry's product isgiven by Q¹ (p) = 448 - p per month. Firms are price takers.(a) Find the short-term equilibrium price, demand, the quantity produced by each firm, aswell as firm's profit. What is the consumer surplus? What about the producer's surplus?(b) The government urgently needs to collect some extra tax revenues in the next fourmonths to meet debt payments. This implies that it needs to collect the amount ofT = 1000 per month from the industry. Calculate the tax level needed to raise thisrevenue depending on the type of tax. Which tax type is the better from a welfareperspective?i. An output tax of t per unit sold imposed on the firms.ii. 7-percent tax on firms' profits.

Suppose the market for cat food is perfectly competitive, with each firm having the total cost function TC (Q) = 36Q -Q2 +³, where Q is the firm's output of cat food in tens of 100 pounds. The associated average cost and marginal cost functions are AC(Q) = 36 –Q + m 0? and MC(Q) = 36 –Q +Q?. Total demand in the market is given by D(P) = 100 100 2400 – 40P, where P is the price of ten pounds of cat food. Find the long run competitive equilibrium in the cat food market, i.e. the equilibrium price, quantity supplied by each firm and number of firms operating in the market.
The market for quinoa is perfectly competitive and consists of firms that all have the same cost function, C(q) = 200 + g²/2. What is each firm's supply function? Oq = Oq = p Oq = p+ 25 Oq = p - 25 Suppose the market is in a long-run equilibrium. What is the price of quinoa? Op = 5 Op = 10 Op = 15 Op = 20 Op = 25 The market-level demand curve is Qp = 2000 - 50p. What is the equilibrium market-level quantity? Og = 250 Oq = 500 Oq = 750
Consider a market with demand given by Q=100-P. The market is perfectly competitive with 60 firms and all have same cost structure. They all have no fixed costs and a constant variable cost of USD 40. How do we get the market supply curve for this situation.

Consider a competitive firm with total costs given by T C(q) = 100 + 10q + q^2. The firm faces a market price p = 50. (a) Graph the AT C, AV C, MC, and MR curves in a single graph, and indicate the profit maximizing level of output. If there are profits, shade the region corresponding to profit and label it. (b) If fixed costs increase from 100 to 500, what happens to the profit maximizing level of output, T R, T C, and π? (c) If fixed costs increase from 100 to 500, should the firm continue to operate in the short-run? What about the long-run?
Suppose the cost function for a firm is given by C(Q) = 100 + Q2. If the firm sells output in a perfectly competitive market and other firms in the industry sell output at a price of $10,A) What level of output should the firm produce to maximize profits or minimize losses?B) What are the profits at the optimal output amount? C) Should the company produce this optimal amount or should it shut down?
