29. A firm produces in a perfectly competitive market and hires labor in a perfectly competitive labor market. The firm hires four workers, the marginal product of the fourth worker is 4, and the wage rate is $40. The firm produces 100 units of the product, which sell for a price of $10. This firm is a. maximizing profit when it hires four workers. b. not maximizing profit and should hire more workers to increase profit. c. not maximizing profit...
Suppose that we have perfectly competitive input markets (for both capital and labor) and output markets. Firm "Tropical Juice" produces orange juice which it sells at $6. The input price that the firm faces is an hourly wage of $5 and the rental rate of $2. Furthermore, the firm currently has a capital stock of 2. Find the labor demanded by the firm in the short run under the following production technologies. a) f(k,l) = k0.1l0.9 b) f(k,l) = max{k,...

At the profit-maximizing output, calculate total revenue and total cost. C. If the firm maximizes profit, how much profit does it earn? d. What will likely happen to market demand or market supply in the long run? e. What will likely happen to the market price in the long run? Price (s) d = P =...
Homework (Ch 10) Assume that a firm in a perfectly competitive industry has the following total cost schedule: Calculate a marginal cost and an average cost schedule for the firm to complete the following table. Marginal Cost Average Cost ($) (S) Output Total Cost (units) ($) 220 300 600 770 960 If the prevailing market price is $34 per unit, units will be produced. Profits per unit will be and total profits will be Is the industry in long-run equilibrium...
Consider the following total cost schedule for a perfectly competitive firm producing ball-point pens. Suppose the prevailing market price for this firm's product is $0.14 and the firm is currently producing 20 units of output. This competitive firm wishing to maximize its profit would Output per period TVC (S) TFC (S) 0 0 10 25 20 30 6 5 40 10 5 50 15 3. Increase output because marginal revenue is greater than marginal cost b. produce zero output because...
