17th Assignment Consider a representative firm with total costs of TC = 16 + 1/Q ^ 2 (and a marginal cost of Q, MC = 1/2 * Q ) The market demand curve is given by P = 10 - 1/A * C and the starting market price is $2. 1) Graph the starting scenario using comparative statics. 2) Calculate any profit or loss. Why is this not a long run equilibrium? 3) What happens in order to transition to the long run? 4) Graph the long run equilibrium using comparative statics. 5) How many firms are in the market in the long run?.
At a market price of $5 your artisanal pencil business maximizes profits by producing 484 pencils per day. When you produce this quantity of pencils per day, your average cost per unit is $4. What is your total revenue per day? $ What is your total cost per day? $ What is your daily profit? $
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.

All the supply of peppermint oil is produced from mint plants grown in one county by several competitive growers (the number of growers is not limited). The quality of land in the county varies greatly. Would you expect the long-run market supply curve to slope upward, downward, or remain constant? Why?
If there were 10 firms in this market, the short-run equilibrium price of steel would be $______per ton. At that price, firms in this industry would ______(shut down/operate at a loss/ earn a positive profit/ earn zero profit). Therefore, in the long run, firms would__________(enter/ exit/ neither enter nor exit) the steel 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 ton. From the graph, you can see that this means there will be_____(10/20/30) firms operating in the steel industry in long-run equilibrium.
Give an example of a price at which this firm would want to produce and sell output in the short run, but not in the long run.
10. In a competitive market, the current equilibrium price is $200 per unit. A firm that produces Q units of output in this market has a short-run Total Cost (TC) given by TC = 8000 + 40Q + Q². What is the marginal cost for this firm? How many units should the firm produce?
9.7. Suppose that the demand for broccoli is given by Demand: Q = 1,000 – 5P - where Q is quantity per year measured in hundreds of bushels and P is price in dollars per hundred bushels. The long-run supply curve for broccoli is given by Supply: Q = 4P – 80 %3D a. Show that the equilibrium quantity here is Q = 400. At this output, what is the equilibrium price? How much in total is spent on broccoli? What is consumer surplus at this equilibrium? What is producer surplus at this equilibrium? b. How much in total consumer and producer surplus would be lost if Q = 300 instead of Q = 400? c. Show how the allocation of the loss of total con- sumer and producer surplus between suppliers and demanders described in part b depends on the price at which broccoli is sold. How would the loss be shared if P = 140? How about if P = 95? d. What would the total loss of consumer and pro- ducer surplus be if Q = 450 rather than Q = 400? Show that the size of this total loss also is indepen- dent of the…

Show what happens in the short run on both graphs when a new medical study shows soybeans to be highly carcinogenic. On the market graph, you will shift a curve or curves. On the firm's graph, use Price 2 to draw a new price line for the firm. On both graphs, indicate the new equilibrium point with point B. Now, show the changes that get both graphs back to long‑run equilibrium. Use shift(s) for the market and Price 3 for the firm. Indicate the new long‑run equilibrium with point C.
