Answer
Option A
the average total cost is the same over the output
ATC=TC/Q
ATC of all the output should be the same
ATC(100)=100/100=1
ATC(150)=150/150=1
ATC(200)=200/200=1 and so on
so option 1 is correct

An industry has two firms producing at a constant unit cost of £10 per unit. The inverse demand curve for the industry is p = 110 -0.57. Suppose that firm 1 is a Stackelberg leader in choosing its quantity (i.e., firm 1 chooses its quantity first, knowing that firm 2 will observe firm 1's quantity when it chooses its own output.) How much output will firm 2, the follower, produce? a. 40 units. b. 15 units. c. 20 units. d....

For a constant cost industry in which all firms the same cost functions, their long-run average cost is minimized at $10 per unit output and 20 units (i.e. q = 20). Market demand is given by QD=DP=1,500-50P. Find the long-run market supply function Find the long-run equilibrium price (P*), market quantity (Q*), firm output (q*), number of firms (n), and each firm’s profit. The short-run total cost function associated with each firm’s long-run costs is SCq=0.5q2-10q+200. Calculate the short-run average...
