In case of decreasing cost industry, long run industry supply curve is downward sloping because decreasing cost means expansion of the industry causes lower resources price and production cost.
Answer: option B
costs in the If the long-run industry supply curve is downward-sloping, it follows that there are...
QUESTION 40 An increasing-cost industry will have a perfectly inelastic long-run supply curve. an upward sloping supply curve in the long run. a perfectly elastic long-run supply curve. an upward sloping demand curve in the long run. QUESTION 41 An industry in which an increase in output leads to a reduction in long-run per-unit costs is a(n) increasing-cost industry. constant-cost industry. break-even cost industry. decreasing-cost industry.
If the long-run market supply curve in a perfectly competitive industry is upward sloping, then the industry: -is a constant-cost industry. -is an increasing-cost industry. -exhibits constant returns to scale. -exhibits increasing returns to scale. -is a decreasing-cost industry.
The long-run market supply curve is
Choose one
:A. downward sloping.
B. vertical at the profit-maximizing output level.
C. horizontal at the market price.
D. upward sloping.

QUESTION 24 In the long run, which of the following will never occur at any level of output for a perfectly competitive firm? oa P» АТС MRMC c. PMR ed. All the given answers can occur QUESTION 25 The short run supply curve for a perfectly competitive firm is a could be upward sloping, downward sloping or horizontal depending on whether the industry is constant cost, increasing cost or decreasing cost industry b. upward sloping c. downward sloping d horizontal...
QUESTION 9 The perfectly competitive firm faces a downward sloping demand curve. constant marginal costs. a horizontal supply function. perfectly elastic demand. QUESTION 10 The short-run industry supply curve slopes up because the law of diminishing marginal product applies in the short run. wages increase as the industry increases output. the firms eventually experience diseconomies of scale. the higher price is needed to get more firms to enter the industry.
The classical dichotomy and monetary neutrality are represented graphically by an upward-sloping short-run aggregate-curve. a vertical long-run aggregate-supply curve. an upward-sloping long-run aggregate-supply curve. a downward-sloping aggregate-demand curve.
QUESTION 30 A downward-sloping portion of a long-run average total cost curve is the result of: economies of scale. diseconomies of scale. diminishing returns. the existence of fixed resources. 2.5 points QUESTION 31 In the long run, firms in many industries often experience a falling average total cost curve as a result of: gains through trade. increasing marginal returns. economies of scale. lower fixed costs. 2.5 points QUESTION 32 A large aircraft manufacturer, like Boeing, may have a...
For any firm, what is the long-run average cost curve? O A A downward sloping line o B Afunction which shows the lowest average cost of producing any output level 10 c The same as the long-run marginal cost curve O D Upward sloping at all levels of output
Explain why the industry supply curve is not the long-run industry marginal cost curve. The industry supply curve is not the long-run industry marginal cost curve because O A. production will only occur along the long-run marginal cost curve for prices above average variable cost. O B. at prices above the minimum long-run average cost of production, firms will exit the industry. O C. production will only occur along the long-run marginal cost curve when profits are earned. O D....
Short-run and long-run effects of a shift in
demand
Suppose that the tuna industry is
in long-run equilibrium at a price of $5 per can of tuna and a
quantity of 400 million cans per year. Suppose the Surgeon General
issues a report saying that eating tuna is bad for your
health.
Part 1) The Surgeon General’s report will cause consumers to
demand: a) more b) less tuna at every price.
Part 2) In the
short run, firms will respond...
