In competitive markets economic profit becomes zero in the long-run. However, it is also possible for some firms to earn a greater accounting profit and to enjoy a higher producer surplus than other firms. How is it possible?
You are the owner of a firm in a perfectly competitive market. The market supply and demand are given by the equations: D: P=8 - 0.1Q S: P = 0.2 + 0.05Q Your firm's marginal cost curve and total cost curve are: MC = 0.1 + 0. 2q TC = 20.425 + 0. 1q +0.1q? What is the firm's profit (positive) or loss (negative) ? O 2.2 (profit) O 18.225 (profit) O -18.225 (loss) -2.2 (loss)
There are 80 firms of type A and 60 firms of type B in a perfectly competitive market. On one hand, type A firm faces a fixed cost (all sunk) of $12 and average variable cost is 2q. On the other hand type B firm faces a fixed cost (all sunk) of $10 and the variable cost is 3q. Market demand function is given by Q=1200-70 P. Find the equilibrium price in the market. $7 $8 $12 $10

Assume a competitive firm faces a market price of $150, a cost curve of: C + 6q + 1,500, and a marginal cost of: MC = q² + 6. What is the firm's profit maximizing output level? units. (round your answer to two decimal places)
Glowglobes are produced by identical firms in a perfectly competitive market. There are 19 firms in the market. Each firm's Total Cost function is TC=396+2q+q^2 and Marginal Cost function is MC=2+2q. Market demand is Q=484-P. What is the profit earned by each firm in the short-run?

In the US cotton market, each farm having the cost function c(q)=0.5q^(2)+ 10 q+162 where q is the quantity of cotton in tons produced by each farm. The market demand curve is given by Q^(d)=10,400-50 p. Suppose the government gives each farm a subsidy of $8 per ton. Calculate the long-run market price assume the market is perfect competition. $20 $25 $30 $35 With all steps clearly
The market for drones is perfectly competitive. Assume for simplicity that fractions of everything, including firms, is possible. We have identical firms, each with a Total Cost curve of TC=376+91q+q^2 and Marginal Cost curve MC=[b]+2q. Market demand is Q=695-2P. What is the Average Total Cost if the firm produces 37 units?
A firm faces the following average revenue (demand) curve: P = 100 - 0.01Q where Q is weekly production and P is price, measured in cents per unit. The firm's cost function is given by C = 50Q + 30,000. Assuming the firm maximizes profits, the firm's level of production is price in cents is and total profit per week in dollars is (please put your answer for price, quantity and profit in numerical values without any dollar sign, comma or decimal place). If the government decides to levy a tax of 10 cents per unit on this product, the new level of production is the price received by the monopolists after tax in cents is and total profit per week in dollars is the price facing the consumer after the imposition of the tax in cents is (please put your answer for price, quantity and profit in numerical values without any dollar sign, comma or decimal place).
