A perfectly competitive firm produces the level of output at which MR=MC on the rising portion of the firm’s marginal cost curve. At that output level, it has the following costs and revenues:             TC = $830,000             VC = $525,000             TR = $428,000 At that optimal level of output, what profit (loss) does the firm earn?
Assume that a firm in a competitive market faces the following cost information. If the market price for this firm's product is $40, calculate the profit maximizing level of output for this firm using marginal analysis. It may help to create your own cost table and fill in columns for Marginal Cost and Average Total Cost based on the Total Cost information below.  a.What is the level of profit for this firm at the profit maximizing output?  b.To convince yourself that the quantity you found is indeed the profit maximizing quantity, try calculating what the profit would be at the next higher level of output. What did you find?  c. What do you predict will happen in this market over the long run?
A perfectly competitive firm produces the level of output at which MR=MC on the rising portion of the firm’s marginal cost curve. At that output level, it has the following costs and revenues:             TC = $830,000             VC = $525,000             TR = $428,000   Given that the firm produces the level of output at which MR=MC, calculate the amount of profit (loss) this firm earns. is it Profit=TR-TC?
