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...

Suppose there is a perfectly competitive industry where all the firms are identical with identical cost curves. Furthermore, suppose that a representative firm’s total cost is given by the equation TC = 100 + q2 + q where q is the quantity of output produced by the firm. You also know that the market demand for this product is given by the equation P = 900 - 2Q where Q is the market quantity. In addition, you are told that...
